What do you think would REALISTICALLY happen?

If I had no sense of fear, I'd probably end up dead LOL
I am a strong believer that there is a reason for my fear of driving. Like, being afraid protects me from something that could go wrong. I've gotten stronger about it in the past year to where I can drive but there are some days where I stop at the front door like... no, my intuition is saying something about this. So I'll walk or have my bf drive me instead xD

But yeah, without that fear I'd probably lack the caution that I believe protects me from harm. Or, maybe it really does just hold me back, and I'd be living a far better life driving all over the place and accepting that job that would require an hour commute >>

If you didn't guess, this is coming from a place of phobia I've always had haha
But yeah,
what about you?

well if you didn't have fear you wouldn't double think things, you'd just do them and that could lead to me getting in a lotta trouble.

Well, just because you may not fear something, that doesn't mean you can't rationalize what is and is not a good thing to do. Fear and self preservation are not mutually inclusive. You can have one without the other. I don't have to be afraid of heights to know that being up high can be dangerous and I need to use caution if I want to continue living. It wouldn't be good to die regardless of whether I fear death or not. I just wouldn't be able to do what I want if my life were cut short.

I honestly think I'd be able to do a lot more if I could remove the fear aspect.

all of these answers are super important, i love the input ♡ gets my little gears spinning.
i see a lot of similar ideas, and then one that is different, which i find interesting.

its true that taking away fear doesn't necessarily remove our sense of logic at the same time. fear and logical thinking even occupy different parts of the brain. maybe we all assume that without fear, our actions will end in death, because it is death (or serious harm) that makes us fearful to begin with.

-taps chin repeatedly-

@KDA Drew: i think your fear of death is sooooo interesting, especially the point about how you can only truly live without it. Can i ask you a series of pedantic and possibly stupid questions?

@KDA Drew: Do you watch the Good Place?
If not, I think you might like it. It's about the afterlife.

Boredom sucks yes!
Alternatively, maybe eventually when our physical bodies decay and become one with the universe, so do our consciousnesses... I think that'd be pretty dope.
