Is the suffering worth it

[Ahriman]

Then you don't know much, do you?

Shame is bearable.  Shame is definite.  Shame is informative.  Fear...well....that's just running the other way when you hear a loud noise.

Your fear can be used to cause your shame. I'm guessing there's alot of shame in your life.

Shame is enjoyable, perhaps even addictive. Fear isn't enjoyable at all. And that's what makes shame worse than fear.
