  1. Fear may take different forms: I am afraid of public opinion, I am afraid of falling ill, I am afraid of losing my wife or husband, I am afraid of being nobody, I am afraid of being lonely. Do you know what that word means? Have you ever been lonely? Have you ever felt what it is to be lonely? Probably not, because you are surrounded by your family, you are always thinking about your job, reading a book, listening to the radio, listening to the infinite gossip of the newspapers. So, probably, you never know that strange feeling of being completely isolated. You may have occasional intimations of it, but you have never come into contact with it directly, as you have with pain, with hunger, with sex. But if you do not understand that loneliness which is the cause of fear, then you will not understand fear and be free of it.
