Fear-Free write

Fear is a made up belief that enters peoples minds. When weak minded people fall under belief that fear is real, then they enable fear to exsist. There is nothing a humna mind can not overcome, but the perswon whose mind that is has to have the mental toughness to push past intials thoughts. Often what people fear is what they don not know, or are not familiar with. When you first meet someone and introduce yourself, your're not afraid? You don't know the stranger, yet you do not fear them. So why be afraid of something you do not know? That is extremly contradicting. I believe fear doesn't have a place in today's society. There is so much that we have to rely on, so much more information people can obtain and become knowledgable, that we shouldn't fear anything at all. The old saying, "It is more scared of you than you are of it", should be everyone's motto. Nothing in this world can think logically on the same level as a human brain, but it's this logic thinking that we lose when faced with a dangerous situation. Dangerous or not, you have to face situations logically and find the strength and courage to move forward. There are manyoutcomes to any situation, and to fear the situations is just a cop-out from finding the correct outcome. As people we are so close minded to thinking through a scary, or frightening event that we just say, well I am afraid of that so I can't do it, or I won't do it. This cop-out is a defeat to yourself, and future actions you will take.  We enable fear to enter our lives, and thus, enable fear to enter society. If there is anything at all to fear, it is ourselves.

If there is anything to fear at all, it is ourselves. All of us add to the problems that we complain about in other people. You could walk down the street and see a homeless man asking for money and think to yourself, well why doesn't he work? But at the same time, most people will not stop and give him money. What if he was going to go buy a nice shirt and slacks to go to an interview with that money? We just naturally look at the sterotypes that society, which is us, has placed on people. People, all people, are evil in nature. That's just how it is. You can argue this all day and night, but when it comes down to it, we are animals. We are on top of the food chain. We are predators. People who are extremely wealthy, successful business owners who make 6 or 7 figures a year have to let workers go because of budgets cuts? Or a government who shutdown because they couldn't agree on a health care plan, but while the government is shut down and millions of people are without money and support, the big wigs in Washington still collect a check? As a society we are a ruthless group. America is all about getting ahead, success. Yet, once people get ahead, they automatically forget those who helped them get there.Where is the helping others, the bettering ourselves as a country, for the people within the country, that was the sole reason for America's exsistence. We will wind up, if we have not already, in a society driven by hate, driven by money, with no respect of friendship, neighbors or community. We should only fear ourselves, and the power we hold over our actions, and the damages our actions are capable of.
