Fear

We all have it.

Growing up we start fear early. We fear lack of security when we lose sight of mom. The fear that comes from change.

We fear the dark when we go to sleep. What is fear of the dark? It's fear of the unknown; that which we can't see.

Haircuts seem to be a big thing. Cutting something off of us. It should hurt. The innate fear that something might cause pain.

We grow up more.

We fear leaving home to go to the first day of school.

We get over it.

But fear never leaves really. We just paper over it for the most part.

Fear is real.

Fear mustn't control us.

We must control the fear.

I don't fear haircuts. I just choose not to believe in them. :-P
