health, and lack of economic security. That is one of the greatest fears in the world today. When this economic thing shall be intelligently worked out, as it most certainly will be, a large part of the objective fears of man will disappear with it. Of course, we can understand the fear of physical suffering, not only because of the discomfort and pain, but because it disturbs all the normal relationships of life.

If your particular fear does not come under any of the heads we have mentioned, there is still another fear, which is as great as the fear of death, and that is the fear of life; the fear of people, the fear which comes from sensitiveness. In some respects, this is the worst fear that can take hold of one. I do not know if there is any way of weighing and measuring it as against other fears, but there is no fear greater than the fear of life.

Let us consider these fears -- yours, mine, our neighbor's -- try to analyze them and see what is behind them, where they come from, and whether or not we shall be able to do anything about get-ting rid of them. It is our natural supposition that no man is harboring any "pet" fear just for the fun he gets out of it. All men certainly want to express freedom, whether they know it or not.
