Answer:

Everyone must face his or her fears differently

Step-by-step explanation:

A theme conveys the topic, subject, or message in a piece of literature. Option A is not a topic, but rather a similie (using the words 'like' or 'as'). Option C is a simple summary of a story, but does not convey the widespread message. Letter D is the script (instructions) to a play and in no way conveys a topic or message. Therefore, letter B is the theme.
