Dichotomies.

People are scared of the unknown.

They fear what they do not understand and what they cannot control.

A problem is that control,

itself,

doesn’t really exist,

but rather,

is a construct,

of our minds.

Can we not,

therefore,

choose what we are,

and are not,

afriad of?

(do we?)

Would we choose

to be

fearless?

Does fearless mean

safe?

Might it mean

unaware?

How do we make the ends meet,

of fear and control,

of power and responsibility,

of responsibility and anxiety,

of comfort and pleasure,

of object,

and subject.
