I don’t view myself as a “kill or be killed” kind of guy, but when it comes to Fear, it’s either it or me. Either I destroy that monster or it will dominate me: my thoughts, my emotions, my body.
I gained this insight on a field of battle in elementary school. I was a skinny geek, trying to figure out the plural of different things (octopi vs octopuses) when these two lowlifes (not lowlives) starting coming at me. I crapped my pants, but then I defeated Fear. Got my ass kicked, but I fought like a mongoose on crack.
