(#5967) Grow beyond fear because trump will harm anyway

      When the realization that trump is coming for something you care about and fear sets in that is normal. However being afraid of what he is going to do is not a static position to keep. What a normal person would do is accept the fear because it is real and then grow from it to a place where the fear is replaced by a determination to fight in any way you can muster. Growing beyond fear is the key. Staying in the fear is resignation and defeat. In a perfect world fears would be non-existent. Yet we don't live in a perfect world so adapting to our surroundings and feelings is the human way of survival and growth.
     Think of it this way. We are two types of human beings. We are the normal civilized person we live our lives as everyday and then we are the warrior type person who rarely comes out to show themselves. When fear starts to cripple us in our civilized mode we have to transition to our warrior type self in order to function and survive. I mean we don't have too as many examples of people living cowardly lives can be found but they never gave courage the chance to succeed. Because life is not always safe and comfortable nor has it been so in our entire history as a species. So recognizing that we have this instinctual adaptability to calm our emotions we have honorable options.
     First we must tell ourselves that we are free human beings belonging only to our own choices. Then we have to understand why and where the fear is coming from. I know personally that standing up with courage is difficult when your mind and body just want to hide. But hiding is not a solution it is just an avoidance, a procrastination. Becoming our warrior selves is what will help remove the fear and instead replace it with a righteous type anger. Through that positive anger we are able to unfreeze our physical body and activate movement to stop the root of the fear. Our species has always had both these modes of living. We look to live civilized lives but the danger of fear keeps reminding us that we are also warriors who must protect our civilized selves.
