Reacting To Fear

I am clear that I do not know the “right” or loving action to take for other people, and that it is even difficult for me to determine that action for myself.  However, I observe and communicate with many others around me who are responding primarily to some form of fear of possible future events.  They are reacting to fear rather than love, quite understandable since that is the way we have been taught.  I have spent most of my life reacting to fears of one sort or another.  The reason that I now choose to base my reactions on love is that the outcome is generally better for everyone involved and feels “right”.
