Anyone who tells you they have no fear is a liar.
The bravest warriors embrace their fear and overcome it.
Cowards repress and deny their own fears, so when crisis comes,
they are paralyzed by the fear they have no experience in facing.

Fear is a gift and a curse.
Learn how to use fear.
Those who can look into their fear,
Master it
See the truth in it
These peole can use their fears like a powerful man-at-arms to guard them at all tims.
These people wake up in the body in times of crisis.
Those who do not learn, freeze like a deer in headlights.
Those who do not learn, succumb to those who use fear to control others.
Control through intimidation or through false promises of delivering them from fear.
These human sheep will just wind up as tools in some madman’s schemes.
Look into your fear. Have courage.

I no longer fear fear.  Since my father passed away what I thought I feared most was actually my own projection of the future.  When the future finally arrived, what I feared was actually just a challenge to overcome, to learn from.  Yes for the longest while I feared a lot., myself, others, and I would avoid all.  Now I can use that fear and understand myself - take myself to the next level.  Takke the fear and use it to challenge myslef further .  Because understanding it will help me grow...anyone grow.

'Anyone who tells you they have no fear is a liar.

So very, very true.
The problem for most people is finding a way to 'face' their fear. I've faced a few of mine but there are still some left - bears!!!!!!!!!! eugh hate them.

'bears' hahaha!!
I feel the same way - some days I can do it no problem - other days...well...yeah...

And I also liked the part of "they are paralyzed by the fear they have no experience in facing." because that is just so true.
If you don't do something and practise it - sometimes get it 'wrong' then you can't/don't learn how to do it the 'best' way for yourself.
Just don't have the resources to deal with the situation.

Thanx Omnicron Solaris, really enjoyed reading this.

Nice topic and discussion.. Yes FEAR is in-evitable in normal human's life.. Let us discuss the FEAR technically to face it. Given below is the nice article from a Dr.

COURAGE  - The Bridge Between Fear and Peace

Change and loss mark life on the physical plane. We will ultimately lose everything, including our loved ones,possessions, and ultimately, the body. At death, we must face the abyss, the infinite unknown. Fear, a natural and intelligent response to these changes, has two key functions. It identifies the nature of the dangers we face, and it helps us fashion the best strategy for survival.

Fear becomes a problem itself, however, if we avoid it. If we run, it takes on a life of its own. Although we may temporarily gain comfort by pushing our fear into the subconscious, it does not remain dormant. Rather, it infuses the conscious mind with fearful fancy, chronic worry, and doubt. It may escalate to panic or terror. Irrational fear ties up energy, impairs judgment, adversely affects health, and obstructs psychological and spiritual growth.

Fear is often difficult to detect: we design all kinds of creative disguises to avoid it. If we dig deep enough, however, we can find our fear hiding behind anger, jealousy, addiction, dependency, self-importance, and rigid beliefs. To master fear, we must first strip it of its many costumes, experience it directly, and face it with courage.

Courage is the bridge between fear and peace. When we courageously work through our fears, new levels of peace and strength slowly emerge. If we face it until it is gone, we eventually reach the grand prize, the fearless peace of the soul.

In ordinary consciousness, we feel insecure, knowing that we can lose what we have at any time. In spiritual consciousness, we feel safe, since there is nothing to lose. The soul is conscious, immortal peace. Nothing can touch the soul. It is eternally protected and safe. With sustained spiritual practice, we can shift from the fear and insecurity of the material plane to the permanent peace of the soul.

The key to maintaining peace is the mind. Everything that happens is perceived by the mind. The mind, in turn, determines the body’s response. The mind is conditioned to respond to events with fear or tranquility. If the mind reacts with fearful thoughts, the body responds with an elevated heartbeat, sweat, shortness of breath, butterflies in the stomach, dry mouth, and a feeling of impending doom. If the mind stays calm, the body stays relaxed.

By practicing the spiritual methods described in this work, we can recondition the mind to remain calm in frightening circumstances. Ordinarily we use a small percentage of our concentration, our minds thus remaining susceptible to thoughts of fear and insecurity. A concentrated mind maintains its focus on the peace of the soul, no matter what. In effect, our work is to change thoughts of fear to those of peace by practicing mindfulness, meditation, the presence of God, affirmations, yoga, and other techniques. With sustained practice, the mind remains calm, positive, strong, and focused under all conditions. Eventually, we can achieve the superconscious state of fearless peace.

There are three stages of fear. In stage one, we try to avoid fear. This makes it grow. In stage two, we face all of our fears with courage. Slowly, peace replaces fear. In stage three, we reach the permanent peace of the soul.
