Is it better to have too much fear and live a very sheltered life where bad things will seldom occur? Or to live a life without fear which can in turn mean that you are often naive and end up in danger and trouble occasionally?
I know that you should have no fear to begin with, because fear is relinquished with awareness, but we all have it regardless. If you had to pick between the two options only which one would it be and why?
Remember that having too much fear will limit the potentially good experiences you have, but also keep you away from harm and trouble for the most part.
And having too little fear means you often run into danger and trouble. Getting hurt, going to jail, or hurting others are all possible outcomes of not having a lot of fear. Understand that you can be incredibly naive and that the world really is your oyster in which there are a lot of very good, but also very bad, things waiting for you.
I'm only giving these two options because I want you to pick one. I know most of you would like to have a balance between the two, which is the best way to go, but let's assume you can't have a balance between the two.
