Why let fear fill your heart and mind?
Fear’s good, a defense mechanism;
Fear is needed within limits;
Fear’s the key hurdle for man’s feats!
But fear of God is good for soul;
Fear should not paralyze your flight;
Unprecedented fear isn’t good;
Fear prevents you from taking risks!
The fear of fear is your worst foe!
Fear helps retreat when danger’s high;
Death is a fear but all must die;
Cowards die galore before death!
Fear kills the urge to face one’s strife;
Fear is an instinct like others;
Fear is OK if it passes;
Fear should not stifle man’s courage!
