Above writing is:[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=black][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue]Accept what is happening around you with Courage. Even if you are in a situation that has the capacity to bring the shadows of fear in your life, do not let it happen. Rising above the fears does mean that you should move through the fears if you have any and must not turn away and be scared. [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=black][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue]Hate cannot conquer fear/pain, as both (fear as well as hate) do not have any roots. In fact hate is a product of fear. Look what is going on around the world today. All started from Fear, as people are controlled by all different kinds of fears and that is generating hatred all around (be it racial, religious or any other type). Fear is said to be the most effective tool in destruction.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=black][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue]Courage is a VIRTUE. It is not merely an empty emotion like fear and pain. Where courage is, fear cannot sustain. [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=black][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue]To be courageous, you have to empty the mind of your past and future concerns (worries, anticipations, regrets, jealousies etc.).
