True freedom exists without fear. I would add that this is different from responsible risk assessment, and is not to suggest that true freedom is the equivalent of some kind of life-version of a free-for-all or some form of anarchy. It is accomplished when one is prepared to accept any outcome, even an adverse outcome, even and especially in the presence of the best efforts one can bring to any experience or event. It can only exist in its most perfect form in the presence of deep and abiding Faith.
Remain steady. Be safe. Stay well everyone!
