What is Fear?

Fear isn' t a single feeling, it's a mix of several factors like the fear of the unknown, the doubts about one's own ability, the fear of a refusal or the fear of isolation, the fear of envy...We live on fears: of tomorrow, of the unknown, of an event...These fears can be collective, like the fear of the world end or the fear of a nuclear attack.

There is also the fear of everyday life, common in some societies like the Germany of Hitler or the Russia of Stalin. Fear is a normal defensive emotion due to a real or imaginary danger; so it is always the fear of something, of an object, and to feel some fear is a good defence because it compels us to be more careful.

Don't risk your life in stupid situations, so, if you want to be happy, sometimes you must feel afraid!
