Define Fear
Oxford dictionary defines fear as An unpleasant emotion caused by the threat of danger, pain, or harm.
But Fear is a word that can mean so many different things
it is sitting on your bike at the top of Dead Man's Curve the anticipation of your Huffy being turned into scrap metal skinned knees broken bones and bloody nose the anticipation of hitting that road fear is the Deep silence of the graveyard you passed through as you're trying to get to some pizza place that by the way you don't even want to go to now but you don't remember your way in so you have to follow the way out fear is the steps you hear down the hall at 12:30 as you nestle deep down in your sheets don't even breath pretend to sleep, and when the door shuts let out a sigh of relief, Fear is the inability to anticipate his mood like a constant state of walking into a silent room blind folded, bear footed with the knowledge that there may in fact be loose nails on the floor but you must go forward anyway.
Fear is the mother of courage.
