@TexChik are you a fan? I read the book when I was young but hardly remember it, I saw the movie many many times, one of my favorites.

Fear is not needed.

@GeistInTheMachine Krishnamurti wrote an interesting book on fear, its called "on fear". came to a similar conclusion, he said fear is an avoidance of reality instead of facing it. similarly, Henri Laborit wrote a book called "eloge de la fuite" where he discusses the fight or flight reaction, but the third option, called "inhibition of action", is fear, its when we freeze and do nothing.

@reflectingmonkey Life is motion. Staying frozen isn't an option.

@GeistInTheMachine yes, I agree, that's why "its the little death that brings total obliteration"
Maybe be a Green Lantern?

@Rokasu very interesting, didn't know dune had inspired someone to create music.

@reflectingmonkey It's possible. Dune is a fairly famous book.

Hmmm...I know Dune is very popular...but I think I prefer the Gavin DeBecker approach to fear.
