Pagan texts. Have a line from the Havamal:

>Cattle die
>Kinsmen die
>You too soon will die
>But I know one thing that never dies
>Judgement of a dead man's life

Plenty of stuff in there and the eddas that will make you absolutely not fear death. If you can get over death, you pretty much stop giving a shit about every other uncertainty.

Well if you become fearless through apathy (nihilism) you'll lose your drive and become depressed. It's about getting over fear of death, if you do that you wont fear bigger people or social situations or anythinf. What better way than to know that death comes to all and is inevitable, but what matters is the life you've lived so don't waste it. If everything is as it should be in your life, then why should you fear death? I don't mean you have to be successful, so long as you are humble and you've not committed evil acts, then be at peace.
