What Makes You Afraid?

Don’t be afraid of trying,

or of your body dying,

or even of going to hell,

but of the lies you might tell.

The one thing you have to fear

is not being of good cheer.

The attitude you take

makes you a dove or a snake.

If you are of good intent

your good will is evident.

One thing we should fear the most

is a tendency to boast.

Humility is a must

in everyone we trust.
