"That which you fear most will happen to you"

[Haole Girl]

A man I knew in my 20's told me that. He claimed it was a Syrian expression.

Do you believe this to be true?

1. My dear Haole Girl...

I can see how people would believe it. I think it's like when you're riding your bike, just learning how, and you're focused on the light pole in your path...

You don't want to hit it, but you're so focused on it that you can't avoid it.

This might be a way it could happen...

If you find yourself dwelling on the worst thing possible happening to you, then you need to give yourself a little shake, and tell yourself that this too shall pass.

And then get on with your life.

I'd be a billionaire philanthropist married to Anne Hathaway.

Does that qualify as a fear?
