This blog post by my favorite author, John Katz, is extremely insightful, honest, and thought-provoking.
Love and fear - we think they are synonymous; that fear and worry for someone equates loyalty and love. It doesn't and we are not built to be a human shield (an absolute oxymoron should you think deeply about that statement) made to take the blows of life for someone else. Fear is a cage, a jail that encompasses those you "love" into a tiresome trap. Love however, is the freedom to accept and understand the ones you love can live their life safely, healthfully, and gratefully without your worry, concern, or fear of everyday life.
