Fear of rejection Rejection is the action of rejecting : the state of being rejected. When we look at life through the eyes of fear‚ we don’t see other people in their pain. We only see our fear.

The Dark Side Do good and evil really exist? Are they just concepts or reality? We all have our own opinions. I consider good and evil to just be concepts. What constitutes as good or evil?

Dark Energy VS Dark Matter Dark Matter Dark Matter is the name given to mass that emits no detectable radiation. ‘’Dark Matter accounts for the galaxies rotating about "local groups" in tighter orbits than we expect from our observations. Gravity is stronger than we can account for unless there is some matter we cannot see. We are much more certain what dark matter is not than we are of what it is” (Feild‚ Ann‚ 2013).
