"ترس یک احساس بسیار قوی است که همه محبتهای طبیعی دیگر را تحت تأثیر قرار میدهد و در نتیجه همه تصمیمات را نیز تحت تأثیر قرار میدهد."
— Thomas Aquinas
Simplified Meaning:
When people feel afraid, it can overpower all other feelings and thoughts they have. For example, imagine you're about to give a speech in front of a large crowd. Even if you love the topic and prepared well, your fear might make you forget your words or feel too nervous to speak clearly. Fear can be so strong that it takes control over everything else, making it hard to be confident or calm. In real life, like during emergencies, fear might cause people to act in a panic, even if they know the best thing to do is stay calm. To handle this, try to recognize when you are feeling afraid and take a moment to breathe deeply, remind yourself why you were confident before, and focus on your strengths. This way, you can prevent fear from overriding your other feelings and decisions.
