Chassidus teaches us, how it is precisely the combination of conflicting emotions that create the good person

In other words, as we know, the emotional table / chart has a right center and left
Right is the side of love, and left is the side of fear; both are extremes, for love sees no evil, which is naïve; and fear sees no good, which is also naive (for fear creates a protective shield disengaging from other people).
The correct balanced approach is trusting God, hence not having fear – but not using that as a license for self-fulfillment, rather, that God desires compassion!
