Don't let your fear win

Once Krishna and Balarama got late playing in the forest. They decided to rest in there over the night and thought to go back home in the morning.

Since it was deep, dense and dangerous forest they decided that one will sleep while other will keep a watch. And after midnight they'll change the duty.

?After couple of hours Krishna was into deep sleep while Balarama was awaken keeping watch. While Balarama was keeping watch, he heard a growl, a very scary growl. He walked towards the sound and found a big scary monster.?As he came closer the monster growled again, making Balarama very scared and trembled.

Every time Balarama would tremble, the monster will grow double its size.

Monster became bigger and bigger as it approached Balarama. After sometime the monster became so big that it was very close to Balarama and finally growled one more time. Scared Balarama screamed "Krishna, Krishna", fainted and fell unconscious.?

?Hearing Balarama's scream Krishna woke up. Looking at Balarama he thought he slept and now its turn to keep watch. He started doing that moving back and forth.

Soon he saw monster standing nearby.

Monster growled at Krishna. "Who are you" Krishna said unafraid. The size of the monster shrunk to half of its size.

"What do you want and what are you doing here?" Krishna again asked unafraid and the size of the monster shrunk further.???

This went on. Krishna kept asking questions and monster kept getting smaller and smaller. Now it became so small that Krishan put him in his pocket and continued duty.?

When Balarama woke up in the morning he told all the story of night as to what happened with him and about the big scary monster. Krishna took out him from his pocket and said "are you talking of this one"?

"Yes, but it was so big how did it shrink". Balarama said.

?"Every time I would ask question, it would shrunk in size. And finally it became this tiny". Krishna said.

?Every time we are afraid our fears grow big, but every time we face them, ask questions, they become smaller and smaller
