Please don't be derailed by a few who are telling you all the "facts" about something new that they have never tried themself, know nothing about but they profess their fear based ignorance anyway. I know that smart people can make their own decisions. Some people just hate what they do not understand and some wear it like a badge on their shirt.

Sara Paddison, The Hidden Power of the Heart
"If you are dealing with fears and insecurities from old head programs, have compassion for yourself. Just love your insecurities, fears and resentments. Release and forgive them as they come up. Judging, beating or repressing insecurities just gives them power. Then you have a pattern that never gets resolved. Recognize that your real security is built from your relationship with your own heart."

"One hates what one fears."

Aesop
"It is easy to be brave from a safe distance." (being anonymous)

Lucius Annaeus Seneca
"The bravest sight in the world is to see a great man struggling against adversity."

Lidwig Borne
"The most dangerous person is the fearful; he is the most to be feared."

Doug Larson
"An optimist thinks this is the best of all worlds. A pessimist fears the same may be true."

Cyril Connoly
"Hate is the consequence of fear; we fear something before we hate it; a child who fears noises becomes a man who hates noise."

Robert Louis Stevenson
"Keep your fears to yourself, but share your courage with others."

Lactantius
"Where fear is present, wisdom cannot be."

Jewel Kiltcher (Singer)
"The things you fear are undefeatable, not by there nature, but by your approach."

H. P. Lovecraft
"The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown."

Livy
"We fear things in proportion to our ignorance of them."

“The greatest ignorance is to reject something you know nothing about”

“Being ignorant is not so much a shame, as being unwilling to learn.” Benjamin Franklin

“Fear always springs from ignorance” Ralph Waldo Emerson

From the beginning of time, when anyone shines light on something unknown there are those agents of darkness who make every attempt to prevent this from happening.
