Answer to Question 1

Nothing in the world is inherently fearful. Like stress, there is nothing out there that universally causes fear. Fear is an internal experience. Many people are scared of snakes, while others are content to have the critters as pets and feel no fear as the snake slithers around their neck. The snake is not causing the fear. The fear is the result of what the person believes about the snake. When we associate a snake with pain and danger, fear is the result. The emotion of fear is the result of the thoughts we create inside our minds.

Answer to Question 2

C
