Are you consumed by fear or thriving without anxiety.
"To doubt everything or to believe everything are two equally convenient solutions ; both dispense with the necessity of reflecion." Jules Henri
Fear can and does take over our lives. Chunking down our fears shows us they are unfounded in almost every situation. Let's face it, we are paying a terrible toll for what most likely will never occur. We may pity the person who is afraid of heights or afraid to go into crowds yet we don't notice our own shortcomings regarding fear. We fear another's getting the better of us so we top what they say. later we regret what we said and question if we should have said it and Wonder how the other person took it. How is that for a domino effect of worries. It might be easier for us all if we make a conscious attempt to think before we speak. Once we've spoken we need not wonder about it's worthiness or repercussions if we spoke from the heart and not the hip. If we speak from the heart we have not intentionally harmed anyone. If a person reads more into what was said then maybe they were meant to take it that way and it might have been a good thing. Later when we are trying to fall asleep, we won't be bothered by nagging thoughts of if we did this or that and was it good or bad. Try to always think first and then have no regrets. If you are later proven wrong about something go from there adding thought before you speak again. If we fear losing love of any kind question why. Do you think the sun will not come up again? Do you think no one else loves you or you will not ever love anyone else? Do you want to control that person rather than just love them? In our hearts there is room to love many others. We don't have to be the only ones filling another's void. Others have room in their hearts to love many people. The more love we have the more love that comes back to us and the better person we become. So why fear sharing love. Why fear losing love. If we respect and nurture our love it should always thrive and we should always have it but not in chains. Anything we have to lock up is not ours and will escape us when it can. Fear of change is a very big fear for all of us. Change is something we can always count on. Again one must think of change as a chance to add more experiences and people into our circle of love and friendship. People are not for the most part, scary. We need not fear a job change. There is always the quiet person, the know it all, the loud ones etc. It is as if we never left the previous employment. Finding love and friendship in one place should give us hope of finding it in many other places. We all want acceptance and people to love respect cherish and count on. Our goals are the same in many ways. Stop fearing the unknown and think of it as already known. Truthfully we are aware of things about ourselves that would never measure up to another's however we also have things about us that no one else can measure against us. that is a fact because we are so unique. Besides as I often say life is not a competition. Life is an awesome learning experience. Somehow I don't think our higher being is worried about how much technology we've learned or how many school books we've memorized. I believe we will be judged on just how much love we have learned to give regardless of what comes back to us in the process. It's about giving our hearts away time and again to others. In that way we learn to love ourselves. In loving ourselves we can love others more and risk more. We all have the power so don't fear, just go on out to face the world and always give it your humble loving best.
"People are unreasonable, illogical and self-centered. Love them anyway. If you do good, people accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Do good anyway. If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies. Succeed anyway. The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway. Honesty and frankness makes you vulnerable. Be honest and frank anyway. The biggest person with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest person with the smallest mind. Think big anyway. What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight. Build it anyway. People really need help but may attack if you help them. Help people anyway. Give the world the best you have and you might get kicked in the teeth. Give the world the best you've got anyway."
