A choice of Fear or a choice of Courage (Article) - 6/16/2015 5:31:21 AM
A good article that hopefully will encourage people to leave their fears behind. I would add a couple of things: the first thing would be to be adventurous and inquisitive. I have always been that way naturally and therefore, found myself in situations where I learned, firsthand about things that people fear that are not fearful at all. The second thing is knowledge. Knowledge trumps fear every time. And like you wrote the only way to gain personal knowledge is to be open and try new things.
Because I've faced so many things and come out on top, people have told me that I'm foolhardy but courageous. I don't look at it as courage at all. Knowledge of the situations I was in made them not fearful. I seem to have a good sense of what real fear is and I've encountered it very little in my rich, eventful life.
So many are stuck in endless rituals of life, tied up in superstition and fear, that they never really enjoy life at all.
