Fear of the Unknown - Ep 25-248

We face the unknown every day. Do you know that the word we use for fear of foreigners is actually the word for fear of the unknown? Xenophobia.Panic in response to uncertainty. Some people say that the fear of the unknown is the greatest fear of all. What do you think?I’ve heard it said that "We do not fear the unknown. We fear what we think we know about the unknown." – Teal Swan. I believe that much of the time, the thought of fear itself is greater than what it is we fear."Fear and anxiety many times indicate that we are moving in a positive direction, out of the safe confines of our comfort zone.". The pessimistic but perhaps reality is that, "People have a hard time letting go of their suffering. Out of a fear of the unknown, they prefer suffering that is familiar." – Joseph Emet. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
