"The Beginning is near" |
That a beginning or an ending is near is not in and of itself a bad thing.
The thing itself that is about to begin or to end is the good or bad thing.
"Time keeps on slippin' into the future" no matter what fears we do have or we do not have as the song points out ("Fly Like an Eagle, Steve Miller Band").
Here are some quotes about fear:
1) Abraham Maslow, psychologist: "I have learned the novice can often see things that the expert overlooks. All that is necessary is not to be afraid of making mistakes, or of appearing naive."(Psychology Today, "13 Quotes to Help You Face Your Fears", emphasis added). Now you are ready to listen to something some people think is too scary.
2) Bill Cosby, comedian: "Decide that you want it more than you are afraid of it."

4) Winston Churchill, UK politician. statesman; former British Prime Minister: "When I look back on all these worries, I remember the story of the old man who said on his deathbed that he had had a lot of trouble in his life, most of which had never happened."
5) Judy Blume, author: “Each of us must confront our own fears, must come face to face with them. How we handle our fears will determine where we go with the rest of our lives. To experience adventure or to be limited by the fear of it.”
6) Don Miguel Ruiz, author, speaker, Shaman: "Death is not the biggest fear we have; our biggest fear is taking the risk to be alive—the risk to be alive and express what we really are."
7) Ralph Waldo Emerson, essayist, poet, philosopher: "When a resolute young fellow steps up to the great bully, the world, and takes him boldly by the beard, he is often surprised to find it comes off in his hand, and that it was only tied on to scare away the timid adventurers."
8) Dale Carnegie, speaker, writer: "Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy."
