What option do you choose?

That's my point. It's my belief that we have to choose in what way we prepare. There is no both for me. I'm not saying that is for everyone. If it doesn't resonate with you, and preparing is your calling, or preparing and spiritual development together works for you, then this is your truth.
I choose that you cannot out-prepare life. There can always be a piano somewhere waiting to fall on your head. Do you believe in the parking fairy? I do. I choose to trust in the process that has kept me so far in life, and I see no reason to start doubting it now.
All the fear mongering chips away at that trust, introduces self doubt and what-if scenarios that suggest the world is a scary place we need to be afraid of. While I am believing in and planning for those scenarios, I cannot have faith in the process.
Common sense would still apply though. I'm not saying never wear a seatbelt for instance... but building an unsinkable boat? We have to ask ourselves how far down that road we want to travel.
