FDR famously said in his 1933 inaugural address: The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

To me his meaning was that no matter how dire the situation may appear fear can only make things worse.    

With all that is swirling around us in these scary times, 2020 will surely rank amongst the worst years of the 21st century. 

I fear, you fear, we all fear. 

To some fear is a harbinger of catastrophe.  For others it is a safety valve that protects us.  

I am wary of the unknown, but rely on past experience and the courage of my convictions to guide me.

Anxiety is not reality. 

Fear not!
