Here's two quotes from Orson Scott Card. He writes a weekly column in the Deseret News that I like to read.
The first one is about truth:
OSC says: "True implies that you have found a connection that exists independent of your apprehension of it, that would exist whether you noticed it or not."
Basically he's saying that truth is like the awesome base line in a Red Hot Chili Peppers song. A lot of times you don't notice it but once you do you'll never hear the song the same again, and you realize that its what made the song worth listening to from the beginning. Yeah, truth is like that...
Although hard to find, true things are always worth the search in the end.
The other is about fear:
"Shunning [something] for fear of loss brings its own regret. What you build can be broken, at least for a time; but what you never try to build is lost forever."
So live your lives people. Without fear or regret but with faith and open hearts searching for truth and especially...love.
When did I get so corny? I'm going to go vomit.
"There's got to be something that would be worthwhile for me to give to you." Dashboard Confessional

Speaking of fear, how is student teaching coming along? I'm dying to know.
