Fear is a journey

"Sorrow is better than fear. . .

Fear is a journey, a terrible journey, but sorrow is at least an arriving. . . When the storm threatens, a man is afraid for his house . . . But when the house is destroyed, there is something to do.

About a storm he can do nothing, but he can rebuild a house."

--Father Vincent, "Cry, the Beloved Country"
