All fear comes from entanglement. We become so entangled we fail to realize the extent of our attachments. We're attached to our comfort, our belongings, the identities we've made for ourselves...and yet we all know they will come and go, and in the end will fall away and become meaningless. We're attached fiercely to our bodies, and fear death above all else...why? It comes to all, it is simply a falling away of the temporary clay shell our spirit has chosen to remain in for a spell. We fear loss of our loved ones and we fear on their behalf, and we all know too that ultimately it's just our contacts with others that makes us fully real.
I'm not a good enough liar to tell you I'm fearless. I'm not sure I'd want to be. I can tell you that I fear less than I ever did before. I've just begun to glimpse what lies beyond this mortal world, and I know it's just as "real" as "here,"
