Possibly the weirdest question I've ever asked

[Prepper1]

Whats to fear? The unknown? We wake up everyday not knowing what will happen.
Should we then fear the morning itself?

There's many things beyond our control such as Fukushima or total nuclear war... why bother to worry about what you cant control.

I am constantly "concerned", or "aware" that's it.

Fear plays no part in my preps or my life because I'd fear myself into an early grave.

I've got 5 people and a granny to be concerned about.

Two others apart from me are definitely useable in my group, so that's three able preppers and the rest to be looked after.
That's life.

Fear nothing, because we are more prepared than most.

We have the ability to survive and prosper come shtf.

We have plans in place, food put by, defenses in place.

Why spend your life worrying about something that may never come to pass?

We prep hoping never to use the knowledge and skills we have.

We are better because of what we do, what we talk about and the online or personal friendships we make with other preppers, we ARE different from the majority, we ARE special because we will survive and thrive post shtf.

We are the animals that survived the disaster that wiped out the dinosaurs, we are aware of things that others are not and that is sometimes difficult to live with, but its a burden but not a bad one its a good one, we go forward every day with eyes wide open.

We are the pioneers, we are the explores of old.

I've seen people blindly wandering through life oblivious to anything, what a blissful worry free life they lead but will they survive?
Probably not because they wont see the train coming till its to late.
We however, stopped at the level crossing and waited for it to pass.

Franklin d Roosevelt once said "So, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself -- nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance".
Fear is just death by another name, start to fear and you may pause at a crucial moment, start to fear that there's nothing you can do and you may give up prepping.

Prepping is the straw we clutch at, prepping is hanging on by the skin of your teeth.
Adapt, overcome, survive, thrive.
