Good post @jerrybanfield - reminds of the Mark Twain quote

“I've had a lot of worries in my life, most of which never happened.”

Now, while many of my fears have been justified, far more were just irrational mind nonsense. I've accepted that I'll probably never shake fear completely, but I can for the most part 'walk through it' unscathed. Also, being able to humble myself to the point that I really don't know jack actually eases the shadowy nemesis lurking behind.

The way I see it, it's extremely arrogant to assume I know what the future holds, so who am I to justify my own trepidations and anxieties?

Just my 70% 2 cents ;)
