origonally, it was for survival, as was anger, fear and anger is what kept us alive during our hunter/gathering times. now it really shouldnt exist, but it does, because it feeds off of anger.

The reoson we fear something is because of a sudden realisation that we weren't prepared for, this realisation is usually caused by the unknown that comes to reality.

Fear drives us toward things or away. Fear can produce good grades because you fear flunking.

To prevent us from doing foolish things, like reaching for something valuable within reach of a snarling dog. To weigh the balance before making a decision.

How does fear teach us about love?

well, throught feeling fear itself it pushes you away!
"the fearful ones will seek place of comfort! in a coorupted energy feild they will seek Control thru Power! In a ballanced energy feild they will seek Peace throught Wisdom!

control of one life brings sense of security... "sense" of security is important here because it just FEELS.

If that person does not receive the love it needs, it will seeks more Control, thru POWER! (chaos only)

I'm glad you understand all that, because I don't. The purpose of fear is to make us protect ourselves from danger.

yes on the instinct basis! but instinct is just 30% of why we exist!

one of the many reason people exist is to carry out their thoughts into Actions and obtain experiances!

That's why it's important that your actions reflects your thoughts patterns, otherwise your not really alive! (don't woory it's part of the learning curve!)

From that you will understand that only the "state of mind" matters! The scenarios don't!

that kind of knowledge can not be found in a book! you have to tap in your inner self and have great discussions with your "higher self"...

Talking to yourself is admited by science to increase intelligence!

one type of fear is the one which is created by our own imagination and that has no specific purpose.
but the other kind of fear that is created by others like the fear of god, ghosts is to forbid the people from doing certain things.. like fear of god for doing bad things, fear of ghosts so that people should not visit certain places etc. !

Fear can be used to let us know to be wary of something. Some things should be feared in the respect that, if we did not fear them, we could very likely get hurt.
But fear is a lot of times over-controlling. It latches on and won't let go, and at that point becomes crippling.

"The purpose of fear is to raise your awareness not to stop your progress." Whatever is unknown, is frightened us. That's why most people fear from darkness, future, getting married, or taking an exam, ect ect.And it is good because it protects us.Fear can protect you from harm. It motivate you to take actionand it might heighten your awareness and focus your attention like nothing else. Fear can prepare you for difficult challenges.
