So, I just wrote the first word that popped into my head for a title. It's not really relevant to what this post is about, but oh well.
Anyway, I'd like to take a few moments to talk about fear. It's been something I've been thinking about this week. First, Father's homily on Sunday was about fear. He talked about how fear holds us back in our relationship with God. We're afraid to go deeper because we may not like what God wants us to do. It was interesting. Then, yesterday, I had a first hand experience with what I could have missed if I had given in to fear. You see, I was afraid to start a certain conversation I had yesterday, but I did, and in the end I got a lot out of it. I'm very glad I didn't listen to my fears. I guess it's true what FDR said, "We have nothing to fear but fear itself." And also, wasn't it God who said it first, "Be not afraid."? With that in mind, I'll take my leave.

I think FDR's observation (nothing to fear but fear itself) is very relevant to our current economic "crisis", more so than it was for the Great Depression.
Hey, look what I just found on Wikipedia:
