A brilliant and influential man said:

"The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear."
--Nelson Mandela

Is it really conquering fear that is brave? I believe we (humans) all have fear as we should. Fear has helped us, as a race, survive through the years. So being afraid is important. However, if fear drives you, or prevents you from living life then let's be brave.

In my humble opinion, people are in a lot of fear and trying to cope with it. Some not having much success. I recently experienced, in a Starbucks, a man who got upset and starting yelling at the top of his lungs because they ran out of almond milk. This reminds of what a great character said:

"Fear is the path to the Dark Side. Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering."
--Yoda

Let's not suffer....if there's no almond milk....get the soy.
