If she is a married women , she will have this fear of her husband leaving her one day for somebody else.She watches over him like a guard dog and bares her teeth at any intruders which comes within range of her territory. Even just looking at another girl can send her blood temperature up.

If she does not know how to handle her fears , she can be very neurotic and become sick from those fears. We know we are only human and if we know the truth and be knowledgeable , we will conquer those ill founded and irrational fears and live a more healthy life.
Everything is providence or fated. Our worries and our fears will only be an impediment to our well beings. I leave everything to God and whatever happens , we should accept the results.
We cannot change the future nor be able to see what will happen in the future.
Our fears and worries will not change the course of history. Whatever happens is a foregone conclusions. It is destiny.
What is your worst fear?
I have nothing to fear. I have run the race as best as I can and I wait for my time to return to my maker. While waiting I will blog as much as I want before my time is up.
"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."
