If you have fear of some pain or suffering, you should examine whether there is anything you can do about it. If you can, there is no need to worry about it; if you cannot do anything, then there is also no need to worry.

"He insulted me, hit me, beat me, robbed me" - for those who brood on this, hostility isn't stilled. "He insulted me, hit me, beat me, robbed me" - for those who don't brood on this, hostility is stilled. Hostilities aren't stilled through hostility, regardless. Hostilities are stilled through non-hostility: this, an unending truth.
