True, Phobia, which is fear is just what got infussed in us. Everyone has fear. And fear may rule our lives if we do not take care of it. This is when you have your conciense in your head, saying," Okay, dude, now we can overcome this fear if we stand up, and make the right decision and have the willpower to have courage in yourself, and fight it off like a man, and you will not have that problem." Wise Man.
