Enough is enough.

Why are people so fearful of everything? They are scared that they will get lousy grades, they are worried that money no enough, they are afraid that the govt don't wanna upgrade their HDB flats if they vote for the opposition party, they fear death, and they are even more terrified of what's gonna happen after they die.

Don't they realise that by behaving like a wuss, it makes it so much simpler for others to use fear as a weapon against them? As seen in many movies and even real life, fear is the ultimate weapon which one can use to take over the world. I'm not exaggerating. Just think Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini, that bastard Yamashita, Dr Evil from Austin Powers, Darth Sidious, etc. Even Master Yoda says, "Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering."

So why let people play on our fears? What if the fear wasn't inborn but it was inculcated into us? Doesn't that show that someone is trying to manipulate us by playing on our fear? So why succumb to it? I'm not saying that I'm a fearless person (no, I'm not Jet Li). I just question the ways people deal with their fears.

Doesn't anyone live for the moment anymore?
