Fear builds walls.

“Fear builds walls”, is a pretty deep statement. It means that if you are afraid of something, you automatically put up a wall and are less likely to face it. Fear definitely takes a toll on your confidence. This statement can describe a lot of relationship problems. If people have been hurt or cheated on in a relationship, they might not be able to open up again because they are afraid of getting hurt. Fear prevents people from reaching their full potential. If they are scared to do something, they will never know the outcome. Even though fear builds walls, people are able to overcome their fears. The walls are like obstacles in their lives that they must face. For an example, someone who is afraid of heights and rides a rollercoaster faced their fear and possibly conquered it. Mostly everyone is afraid of something in life. A common fear is fear of failure. People who are afraid to fail might not try new things because they don’t know how or don’t know if they are good at it. How do you know if you never try though? Fear of rejection is another one that falls under that category. People want to feel accepted so they may not go outside of the box or feel free to express themselves because of what others may think. Sometimes, people don’t even realize that they fear something. It is a common emotion and many people may build walls to avoid it. This quote really could mean a lot of things but that is all I’ve got!
