"Fear escalates in times of discomfort, no matter how remarkable or ordinary. We retreat from love, shrink from creativity, hide from loss. But how do we prevent our fear from sucking us deeper into dogmatism, depression and hatred, or their relatives, superiority, laziness and numbness. The answer is to find a response that balances our emotions through relating to what scares us, not through turning away from it."
