Fear doesn’t make you vulnerable to anything when you consider it for a moment. If people fear you then they don’t necessarily have to hate you either. Sometimes fear can even draw out respect, more so than love can. How difficult would it be for someone to be loved by the world? You would first have to demonstrate your love to everyone and they would have to be pleased by you and your decisions. That would not be an easy task. Yet finally, you would have to uphold your love for everyone and not let it slip. Love seems to require more effort and could even bring about superficial displays, whereas the ability to make people fear you comes from pride, and pride comes with ease.

I don’t believe you can be either one! I think many men will choose feared by all, by some will say loved by all. It depends on your character and who you are and your self-image, and also who you want others to see when you portray yourself! I would definitely say loved by all. I am a very caring individual and would hate for people to fear me. If you are looking for power over intimidation, try fear! LOL
