A quote from 1 of my fellow Ubuntu State Coordinators, Maria...

What we label "fear" is really just energy – OUR energy. It is a particular wave that is rising in you, Ocean. You are energy; fear is energy. It is made out of exactly the same "substance" you are made of: pure energy. To try to get rid of it perpetuates suffering because it is an attempt to divide ourSelf from ourSelf.
