This ain't Star Wars. This is real. Fear has its place, it is up to us to balance it.

I totally agree.
In a Star Trek episode some one said something like emotions are neither good or bad its what you do with them that determines if they are good or bad.
I choose to acknowledge my fear or anger that comes up, but I accept it as a raw emotion, let it go or turn it into love to direct back at it's origin in attempt to balance.
I'm not saying forget the "real world" and play jedi. I look at Star Wars and take inspiration from there, along with numerous other things. I take ideas and bring them into my life. The concept of the force, the dark and light sides are not just fictional story mechanics the ideas can be brought out and looked at in relation to your own life. Good and positive things.
Maybe I didn't explain myself well enough in my first post there but I thought the overall idea of not letting "them" get to you through fear and control you came through. My intentions were in relation to this thread topic, I intended to plant my feet, stand up to negative "doom" that's been going around a bit. Try to put something positive out there.
Maybe the smiley at the end negated the idea, lol.
You mention balance, they talk about that in Star Wars too! lol.
