Fear. Much like the feeling, the word is almost always misinterpreted, taken out of context, or just ignored. Fear is essential, though. The term, just like the feeling, must be faced. Fear demands respect, and when it comes down to it, that is what real fear is. It’s having reverence or solidarity with something that is beyond your understanding. It’s having respect for the boundaries of specific emotional and cosmic forces. Fear must be faced. However, it is not essential to understand why you are afraid, but what you can do about your fear. How are you going to choose to handle yourself?
