Fear can be our ally or our worst enemy, it all depends on the perspective in which you see it and how much power you give it in your life, as you rightly mention, it prevents us from dangers and this is undoubtedly of great benefit.
However, if you let him take over your life, he steals your peace and tranquility and that is not healthy.
