Fear is the dragon that we must slay to open up to what is right in our lives. Religious institutions, political institutions, pharmaceutical companies and the media have done big business keeping us in a constant state of fear. Fear of what, it’s the future and they bank on you being afraid of what MIGHT happen. They all want you to believe that it will be negative. Because then you need them!
What, if you thought that your future could turn out positive? What, if you lived day to day just trying to be in the moment and thankful for what you have, instead of what you might get? I think that’s freedom. When a person can command their day to day, live in the moment, they are free. Free from worrying about what they are missing out on, free from thinking that the sky could come crashing down on them at any moment, free from the past, future, getting cancer, Satan.
The devil is in negativity and fear. We can choose to release ourselves from these shackles and stand tall with feet firmly planted in the now…There is strength and confidence there…There is hope and honour there…and most of all, there is Love there….
“The past cannot be changed, the future may not come, but we can choose to live in Successive moments of now” Sant Kirpal Singh
Hey Rob~
Great Post. I ask myself daily, “what would I do if I weren’t afraid”? It makes me face my fears and realize how silly it is to be afraid….which makes life more fun:) We only live once right.
