My way of life has a lot of research in it. I enjoy finding information about new things, current events, why the situation is at it is. Analysing and gathering information is my passion.
I also try to convince myself that everything will be okay, because I KNOW it will. This can backfire of course at some point. I still am scared of flying, but I know so much about it, about commercial airlines, that it relaxes me. But whilst I did not find some crucial small bits of information I needed to complete my knowledge gap, I actually was more scared, where it almost backfired on me. That was that one point, where I truly thought that it is better to just not know.
