“The Buddha advises us not to try to run away from our fear, but to bring up our fear and have a deep look into it. Most of us are afraid of looking directly at our fear. Instead of trying to distract yourself from this fear or ignore it, the Buddha proposed that you bring the seed of fear up and recognize that it’s there and embrace it with your mindfulness. [[paragraph break]] Sitting with your fear instead of trying to push it away or bury it can transform it. This is true of all your fears, both small ones and big ones. You don’t have to try and convince yourself not to be afraid. You don’t have to try to fight or overcome your fear. Over time you’ll find that when your fear comes up again, it will be a little bit weaker.”--Thich Nhat Hanh
