fear of the future

What makes us so afraid at times in life that we simply dont want to live a life and just run away from it?
Fear of life? fear of tomorrow? fear of a dead line? fear of future ? fear of failure?

Is this fear not triggering our levels of motivation in life? is there a way out of it?
My answer to the last question at present is neither affirmative nor negative and I am not to be intimidated by any ready made answers or quotable quotes or the talks of How I should remain in 'present''awareness' 'transformation' 'here' 'now' 'god' 'hamburgers' etc etc.

I sit here and I question this.Why? because I have fears ,if I had no fears would I even want to know what fears are?I am not worried about humanity or any other imagined entity right now...I see fears and I am trying to find out the exact meaning of it.

Then what is making me afraid? hmmm..lets see...its mostly a failure..I dont want to fail ..I dont want to be deprived of a cozy thought of success...I dont want to let many things Go....I dont want to face my past...

Many reasons..Its interesting how there is 'I' In every one of them...Can I scrutinize the I? I try...There are many things I collectively call as I ..a thinking process..this body...both combined ....neither ....All of them talk about soul but I cant feel any soul...I can imagine it to be many things but I cant feel it...
Anyway..I focus on my fear...and as I am writing this they dont feel to be existent...so through a momentary one pointedness of attention or a simple distraction they dont have a valid(felt) existence.

Lets keep this pending for you.As I go into serenity for time being.
