Everyone has fears, but right now I don't exactly talking about phobia's even though Ms. A obviously has a fear of being away from her family. Personally, can we just get rid of mine? :P haha. Anyways the question is why do countries fear other countries. I don't really think it gets more specific than dominationm and destruction. We live in america where we are free to do much more than a lot of other people from other places around the world. Our #1 fear would be to be dominated by one person, and obviously we don't want to die either. I think the reason countries fear other countries is because they know. Lets take America vs. Mexico. If we really wanted to take them over, we could. We're obviously not going to do that, but its still a legit fear if your mexico.
If i was taken away from my friends, and family with no way to talk to them, I would have a mental break down. I think it would be a while before i even spoke to anyone. I don't know how those people who get stranded in the middle an ocean survive I honestly think I would give up too soon. The fact that it is possible that one of these situations to happen kind of freaks me out.
Jerrin, forgive me, but I'm gonna slap an irish-monolouge on you.
ReplyDeleteThe worse thing to fear is the destructive potential of huamnity. Humans can and have done such terrible things to each other, be it a massive genocide or a capitalistic robbery.
That's the kind of stuff that could drive people insane, not because they saw it, but beacuse they couldn't or didn't stop it.
Let's face it, what's scarer then an inbred hillbilly telling you to "SQUEAL LIKE PIG!"

Fear can put our bodies through a lot of physical and mental stress. But we can go through a lot more than most people believe. You never know how strong you are until you are faced with adversity.
