More From Ursula K. Le Guin

We fear the past, present and future. we fear the unknown, we fear not having enough, losing what we have, not having what we want. we fear what will become of us and those that we care for. we fear what others think of us and what they don't think of us. we fear, fear, fear and therefore we are controllable through the manipulation of all that we fear. the present war on terror is the war of fear. no fear, no control.
War Thinking Past
It is said that the fear of public speaking is a fear greater than death for most people. according to psychiatrists, the fear of public speaking is caused by the fear of ostracism, the fear of standing out, the fear of criticism, the fear of ridicule, the fear of being an outcast. the fear of being different prevents most people from seeking new ways to solve their problems.

Fear is at the root of so many of the barriers that women face. fear of not being liked. fear of making the wrong choice. fear of drawing negative attention. fear of overreaching. fear of being judged. fear of failure. and the holy trinity of fear: the fear of being a bad mother/wife/daughter.

We cannot choose how many years we will live, but we can choose how much life those years will have. we cannot control the beauty of our face, but we can control the expression on it. we cannot control life's difficult moments but we can choose to make life less difficult. we cannot control the negative atmosphere of the world, but we can control the atmosphere of our minds. too often we try to choose and control things we cannot. too seldom we choose to control what we can ... our attitude.
Attitude Optimistic Expression
Fear keeps us rooted in the past. fear of the unknown, fear of abandonment, fear of rejection, fear of not having enough, fear of not being enough, fear of the future-all these fears and more keep us trapped, repeating the same old patterns and making the same choices over and over again. fear prevents us from moving outside the comfort-or even the familiar discomfort-of what we know. it's nearly impossible to achieve our highest vision for our lives as long as we are being guided by our fears.

To think that i know what's best for anyone else is to be out of my business. even in the name of love, it is pure arrogance, and the result is tension, anxiety, and fear. do i know what's right for me? that is my only business. let me work with that before i try to solve problems for you.

When we fear things i think that we wish for them ... every fear hides a wish
Fear Thinking Wish
I do not pretend to be able to prove that there is no god. i equally cannot prove that satan is a fiction. the christian god may exist; so may the gods of olympus, or of ancient egypt, or of babylon. but no one of these hypotheses is more probable than any other: they lie outside the region of even probable knowledge, and therefore there is no reason to consider any of them.
