There is a book, I am going to give it to Mart, it is called "101 Things To Do Before You Die". One of them, number 87 to be exact, is Conquer Your Fear. So I am wondering, what is my fear? It is not that I am afraid of nothing, but really there is not that much I am afraid of. But then again, it depends on the defination of fear doesn't it. I "Fear" walking out in front of a bus moving at high speed towards me. Should I conquer that? Of course not, fear has lots of practical reasons. I guess what the books refers to is "a fear of walking on the cracks in the pavement" or "a fear of beards". Like I have no strange one. I hate mice, but is hate and fear the same thing? Yoda would say so come to think of it. I hate when I see ants walking on my trouser... I know they are totally harmless. So do I fear them or hate them?
