Fatal Thoughts

Many thoughts that we think every day pose some kind of danger whether its internal or external. Maybe the thought with the most danger could be one of outer harm, like jumping in front of a bus. Or maybe the most dangerous situations come from within. Teddy Roosevelt said something along the lines of "All we have to fear is fear itself" and sadly this isn't true. So many things we encounter in our daily life require fear to function, to evolve. Our society fears fear, but thats not what we should all be afraid of. What is the average person more afriad of, a black widow or not making rent? Which one poses a more immediate and realistic threat? That depends on the person. A false sense of security can be very dangerous, sometimes a fatal danger. Whats scarier walking on a tight rope, or the crocodiles lurking under the water below it? That depends on what is real and what is fake. The human mind is prone to imagination and curiousity, and curousity is one sense that has been known to forever be a danger to people. Poking your head into the water, getting to close to a spider, wondering if you can beat a bus, testing your boss's patience. All are risks that are spawned by the most fatal and dangerous thought, or idea. Curiousity.
