An odd question that came to my mind.
#30
RE: An odd question that came to my mind.
No, it indicates a fear of unnecessary risk. Whether or not someone (well, me) would go through the door depends on the amount of risk involved. As I said earlier in this thread, I am quite happy with my life and a fifty/fifty chance of destroying that happiness is not worth the risk. So, it is not a 'fear of reality'. It is a choice to maintain the current reality.
