I thought I wasn't afraid of anything. But as time passed, I began to realize that even fearless people have fears. But my fears aren't normal. I can't count the times I've stood danger face to face and nearly died yet carried on as if it was nothing. And yet I tremble at the slightest hint of change.
To an extent, you can control what you know, but you can't control what you don't know. Therefore, if I restrain what I allow into my consciousness, I have one less problem to deal with. Because I don't have time for new information. It sounds like a burden, another problem I have to solve.
So I don't solve it. I control what I know, I avoid what I don't.
