Bound by Fear

Fear is all around us. Fear can be all-consuming, hindering a person from moving forward. It could be the fear of a person, a thing, an event, or even a place. Fear of the unknown can be worse. To be afraid is natural; to face that fear is often a challenge that most are not willing to take. There are some who thrive on other's fears. They wait and watch patiently each year. They promise an escape from the fear that haunts people's lives. What they offer is worse than any fear ever experienced.
