NOTHING TO FEAR DAY
MAY 27

Fear is a natural and important response for survival. But fear can also become a harmful emotion when it causes us to act irrationally. When we allow fear to control our lives, we see things differently, we're more cautious and more timid, or we overreact to situations in ways that can be harmful to ourselves and others.

Nothing To Fear Day is an opportunity to examine ourselves and see where fears are causing us to be or do things that are preventing us from being all that we can be. It's also an opportunity to see how people and even governments sometimes manipulate the way we think and perceive things by intentionally or unintentionally promoting unfounded fears.

It's a chance to stand up and declare, as President Franklin D. Roosevelt did on May 27, 1941 that, "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself," and take back control of our lives.
