We're just afraid, period. Our fear is free-floating. We're afraid this isn't the right relationship or we're afraid it is. We're afraid they won't like us or we're afraid they will. We're afraid of failure or we're afraid of success. We're afraid of dying young or we're afraid of growing old. We're more afraid of life than we are of death.

What can you or I do? Alone, almost nothing. Yet one person - you alone - can make the difference. . . .

Each of us, all of us, must do what we can.
