Free from Fear

Becoming fearless isn't the point. That's impossible. It's learning how to control your fear and how to be free from it. That's the point.

Veronica Roth in "Divergent"
 

 

 

Fear is such a tricky emotion. Fear is a good survival mechanism but it can also suffocate us so much we stop living. Just as Roth says in this quote, we need to find the balance between knowing when to run from danger and when to break the shackles of fear. This is not an easy thing to do. The main character of “Divergent” stepped from her comfort zone and started living her life when she learned to controlled her fear.
