If you’re afraid of something, face it. Fear is irrational. The only way to conquer your fear is to stand next to it Picture Quote #1

It’s far easier to brush off death if the death in question seems impossible or improbable as a personal threat Picture Quote #1

Social media reactions to celebrity death have taken on a predictable pattern: an outpouring of shock with expressions of grief, followed by a ghoulish need to know all the details, to see the scene of the death and the family in mourning.
