LAYING THE FOUNDATION 6. Fear Not! Fear is an emotion as well as a powerful force. Fear comes in many forms. There is healthy fear -- a respect for things that can harm us. Healthy fear is not really fear at all because there is little or no emotion associated with this type of fear. Instead, proper, healthy fear is a type of wisdom or common sense that helps us to make logical decisions to avoid pain or bodily harm. Healthy fear, or common sense fear, will keep us from stepping in front of a moving vehicle or remind us to take a jacket if it is cold outside. | ||
