Encouraging experience and a decent platformer game by itself. It teaches me that there are ways even when the walls and obstacles seem to prevail. It takes skill and experience - which come through time and practice - though, to use the situational dynamics as a leverage, to transgress the temporary limits. Not always the outcome may be our finest vision of reality, as well. Good hint with the misleading push of competition, also.

Anyway, what do you fear in particular?

Myself, apart from some half-silly imaginations, relating to my everyday life and the specific lifestyle, I think what I am most afraid of, is that I loose connection with myself, becoming gradually what I would pity. Perhaps this is an unrealized fear, though. Because, how can it even properly happen, if I am unaware of it? I mean, can I blame myself for the transgressions committed by an alienated imagine of myself, without myself inhabiting that image at the time, only later reconnecting with it, only to realize I have suddenly 'inherited' an arbitrary debt, urgent to pay in the face of oppressive social agenda?

This is how the karmic notion of 'God' entraps us in the death machine. Because if everything has been created in an instant, any actual rules of emergence, are nullified. We may be 'summoned' with particular existential conditions defining us. Which further implies everything to be a lie. Not just reality, but ourselves.

There is only one entity to blame, which is, the Creator.

This hatefulness towards the creationist Source, is probably what I fear most, as it fuels infinite negativity, which can only be satiated by absolute nothing.
