Truly and honesty, how much do you think fear control our lives?

Unfortunately, most of the population makes all of there choices based on fear. We are afraid of loosing our spouse, so we are not honest with each other. We are afraid of not being able to pay our bills, so we choose to stay in unfulfilling jobs. How we drive is based on how fearfull we are of crashing. We don't discipline our children because we are afraid that someone will accuse us of child abuse. We pay taxes because we are afraid the IRS will come and take everything.
