... all of which lead to anxiety and instability, and can hold the potential of producing more lethal fragmentation than a live grenade.

That's arguable.

I see that I'm not the only one who's reflected on these feelings.

Fear and courage are antithetical. Courage is the ability to think and to concentrate under pressure. Fear has zero ability to reason or to think.

No commonsense. No answers to the problems of life. It neutralizes our reflexes. More we surrender to fear, the greater its power in our lives.

Isn't courage nothing but the flip-side of stupidity?

As for shame... don't get me started.

not really. Most people considered couragous or brave will tell you that they too feel fear, they are just able to see past it and function during it.

Yes, I suppose so, if you somehow equate 'stupidity' with fear (worry and anxiety, emotional reaction and loss

of self control, zero capacity for life and love, have no personal sense of destiny and reside in panic palace).

Yes, both from the neck up and the neck down and it's gradual.
