Fear

Fear doesn't stop death; it stops life.

[George Cantstandya]

Fear often does indeed stop death. Well, not really stops it, but certainly can delay it. Example:   "Hey look at that massive bear and its cute cubs."  

Person A: I'm going to go say hello to this bear and try to get a selfie.
Person B: I'm leaving as fast as I can because this isn't safe and I'm scared.

Person A most likely stops their life while feeding the life of the bear and its cubs.  Person B while certainly not stopping their inevitable death has at least delayed it  :)

My dad took up poetry before he died, this is a good one. Keep it up!

My mom is a fearful person, I like to tell people if she needs to turn left at some point, she will be in the left lane 5 miles ahead of time. That type of genetics/personality is in me, over preparation to reduce fear.

The question is if Burrow and others face fear or feel fear the same way as the normal person who gets anxiety over it. Is fear facing something new that you don't know have any control over the outcome. The brain is not wired (yet) to respond to it?
