Ignorance. We fear what we do not know.
Examples:
1. Is there a monster in the closet
2. What will happen to us now
3. Is he /she dying? Is there no cure?
4. How can she/he works faster than everybody else.
Is he/she going to steal everyones jobs now?

Fear comes first if you are asking a philosophical question.....it has no parent. There are two options in life: love or fear. Apply these two things to whatever you like, but fear is the originator of all that follows it in fear. Fear creates cowards. Whenever you act, it is out of either love, or fear. Love has no fear. I am talking pure energy here, therefore in any situation the core of it lies in either love, or fear. If fear had a parent it would be the human being.

I have long believed that fear and anger go hand in hand around and about the world.
I'm not sure what the parent of fear is. I would think the stark possibility of sudden loss showing it's face... leading to fear... which often leads to anger. People will fight for what they believe is theirs... and some fight for what they think should be theirs even if it never was. I'm still thinking the two are intertwined.

We are. The idea that we have separated ourselves from the world around us (that is an apple, that is a tree, that is a rock, etc.) and the idea that we have separated ourselves from the world within us (I'm happy, I'm upset, I'm lost). This isolations has made us afraid, especially if the apple doesn't do what its supposed to, if the rock doesn't do what its supposed to, if happiness doesn't take its place, if feeling lost doesn't take its place in the right way. What I'd like to point out is that we don't know if a rotting apple is really something to be afraid of, we don't know if feeling upset is something we don't want to be at times. Not to mention, does a squirrel become afraid? Does a bird? No, they run, they attack, they stay where they are, they aren't afraid, they just react.

The lack of love is the parent of fear.

confident, actual! we inventory our ancestor's DNA or genetic coding! alongside with that come fears, illnesses, intelligence, and so on... I even have faith we study the habit besides and surely polish it so properly it shimmers. it incredibly is as much as us at this element to launch ourselves of this inherited worry. worry retains us from living interior the present. Saturday, i became babysitting 3 babies. a while 4, 3 and a million. the baby could balk while the oldest baby startled her and while the three year previous cried. She even flinched while the dogs could bark. This took me returned to my own early life by way of fact i became the youngest with 2 older brothers. worry would exchange into extra advantageous interior the order of the siblings or it only in step with probability expressed in a various way for each baby. This in all probability provides yet another dynamic to this question. I do have faith worry became so uncomplicated in my life that it led me to my preliminary awakening. the terror led to plenty suffering that I reached area of no return. I could say that projected worry, inherited worry and annoying worry can catapult one into awareness quite immediately besides as trauma. Peace my amazing chum. Mudslinger.. (((Kasey)))

Ignorance. If we are uninformed, or worse yet, malinformed, then our mind becomes afraid of the unknown (or mistaken) idea.

Why are we afraid of that which we no naught of? When we do know the truth, we feel safe and secure (this snake is harmless because of its green marks). But if you know nothing about snakes, don't you feel threatened? (OMG!!!AHH!! A SNAKEEEE!!!!))
