Another great read, Jonathan. I think fear is driven by thinking you have something to lose, fearlessness occurs when you believe you've nothing to lose, when you have lost everything that has any meaning and realised your worst fears, gone to the very darkest of places, only then can you experience fearlessness. I think maybe one ought to be careful what you wish for. Living in a state of fearlessness is almost a place of demotivation, potentially numbness.. I think a little bit of fear is what makes the bridge worth crossing, the mountain worth scaling and the dream worth pursuing. Gosh, that trip to Peru sounds like the ticket.

Wonderful insight for the new year! Shana Tova 🍯
Thank you Jonathan for your letter 27. I enjoyed so much.
As I read it I put my self in some of those situations and felt comforted for my reactions to some of my situations with what I am going through.
Your words have helped me tackle the problems head on and not crawling away in a corner and hoping it would disappear.
Have a great day.
Joel.
