Thoughts on 07/04/26 - More on Fear

This has stuck with me for a while.  You can't get rid of fear, but you can master it.  Trust me...  I am deathly afraid of heights and yet I snowboard.

"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."
--- Frank Herbert, Dune - Bene Gesserit Litany Against Fear
