We all have some kind of vague fears that often crop up at unusual times, making us either overthink or simply get fearful. 

Fear is a feeling we experience from the meaning we attach to a particular event or series of events. Usually, it resides in our subconscious mind, beneath our awareness, only waiting for a trigger to surface, and I am no different.

As an HSP, a highly sensitive person, and an introverted child, I did hold a deep, rich inner world with its share of dreams and fears.

Some of my fears are part of transgenerational trauma (trauma inherited from my ancestors via genes)

And 

It took a while for me to realize that I may not have inherited as much of the materialistic possessions, but in abundance, a treasure trove of traumas (t3) running in my nervous system in the form of fear, phobias, limited beliefs, bottled emotions, unfulfilled needs, and painful experiences from both side of my ancestors maternal and paternal respectively, including my parents.

During my healing journey of understanding and processing these traumatic experiences, one good thing that happened was the immense clarity I gained about some of the recurring surreal experiences I had been through in my present life, especially during my trips to palaces and places of the bygone era.

I have written briefly about it in my bio; more on this in some other post and at some other time. 

Today, I would like to share with you one such story from my life intended to help you understand the impact of baseless fears in our lives.
