To tell a friend your greatest fear
won't scare him off, but draws him near.

Joy could be our natural state
if we could just get past Fear's gate.

When you can't make up your mind...
ignoring fear works best, you'll find.

To "fear" a thing requires belief
in futures that will give you grief.
Since you'll attract what you believe,
such futures are what you'll achieve.
Since what you fear, you'll help attract...
to act from fear's an unwise act!

We only fear some "future" thing
that our own Future might not bring.
But present acts, if led by fear,
help draw that fearsome Future here.

Let's not be fooled by our own fears,
which really are just "smoke and mirrors".
Imagined scenes of future pains
are just bad movies in our brains.
But WE direct them and project them,
and WE could choose now to correct them.

Though it's true we're all connected,
we can choose how we're affected.
"We are the world" yet live right here,
and there's no room left here for Fear.

We "terrorize" ourselves to tears,
reacting to imagined fears.

Our hearts grieve for the innocents
lost to a senseless violence.
But let us not be victimized
by fears not real, just fantasized.
