Excellent quip my friend! Very wise words we should all pay attention to. Instead of fearing what we don’t know, we would be wise to research all we can learn about it. Poof! Fear gone!

A bit of teaser, that one, Pam…as it is often of the unknown that we fear. Cheers.x

Very true. And so often we realized that the fear was unfounded.

To the first…the future. To the second…I finally realized…nothing. It’s just that the second takes a little while to understand that 😀

Although I believe it to be life’s ultimate struggle, the perfect place is knowing no fear. Awareness, preparedness, discernment and acceptance all serve one well. Fear is the true debilitator, the antithesis to our greatest power which is love. From spiders to nuclear war to household dust, there is no end to what triggers fear in humans.

That is very true Cheryl. But I also think fear stops us from doing incredibly stupid things. At least in my case.
