As human beings we certainly fear the wrong things.
I fear change; changing jobs; changing from secondary education to tertiary education. It is the mere thought of not knowing what to except that I am afraid of- Expect the unexpected. It takes me some time to adjust to a new environment. Most people see change as a challenge or a new beginning but not me, I fear the unknown. It basically boils down to leaving your comfort zone and putting yourself out the there.
I think we fear of not being accepted by others, everyone wants to be accepted and no one wants to stand out of the crowd. Standing out of a crowd could actually be a good thing because who wants to follow the crowd and be like everyone else.
We have lost the plot in being afraid of the wrong things. We have become a flock of sheep just going with the flow and not questioning anything or anyone.
We need to stand up for what we believe in and use our unique voices in doing so.

This is true. I too am afraid of not knowing what to expect but I think this is something we definately need to face. Life is about taking risks.
