About This Quote

The feeling of fear can weigh down our thoughts and emotions. Fear is the paralyzing emotion that inhibits or restricts normal feelings of love, confidence, and well-being. It can keep us from moving forward in life by constantly telling us that something has to be fearful to be bad. That something must be wrong or dangerous or terrible to stop us from doing what we want to do. And so it stops us from taking risks or doing anything new, no matter how good it might be for us.
