The unknown holds no fears for me. I embrace it with my recognition. The unknown is what keeps me vital and alive. What helps me through the pain of the present is knowing that I am in the present, and wherever I am I am in the perfect place. It is the trust of the unknown that has made the pain of the present an accepted part of my path and a welcome part of my path. One time, for 3 days, I experienced deepest despair, and my consciousness knew that I was perfectly safe and in the right place and going through what had to be experienced. In my knowing of the unknown I rested in pure peace while my emotional body struggled with its seeming reality. My whole life turned in those 3 days and I see them as a time of awareness of my greatest (inner) strength.

It doesn't last. Why endure pain, when the unknown is not really something that necessarily needs to be feared. And once you have traveled into the unknown, you will fear it less and less, and realize there was really no reason to endure the pain at all!

No, but the pain of the present helped me move past the fear of the unknown. Blessings.

yes. i fear being alone and penniless when i reach the age of 70...that is an unknown fear..i dont even know if im still alive by then. i feel pain when my relationship dont work out, when a relative or a family member severe their ties on me which happens thrice already, i dont have work related issues though but i value what i am doing now because of my fears for the future. these fear makes me stronger and somehow helps me build a character for myself.

no. if anything, it just made my pains worse, because it made me helpless to the sheer fact that the pains that stay right now, might stay forever into the unknown of future's hands
but i know, that it will help me sometime. the unknown is what allows hope, because you don't know what's going to happen, so you can hope that what you want will happen. you can hope, that that the pains of the present will not be of the future. but if that hope is turned down, the pains of today will just be fed into tomorrow's.

Only when my present pain was worse than any other pain than I could imagine and I realized if I could deal with the pain right now and survive, I just might make it after going thru Hell.

No.
It distracted me a little but it did nothing to diminish the pain I endured.
If anything it only made the pin worse because there did not seem to be a future worth fighting for.

I have no fear of the unknown, I embrace it.

Yes it did. I learnt that it's the living you should be scared of, not the dead or unknown.

Simply put: to a degree, yes. There is a certain comfort in being sad.
