Fears.............funny little things, they are.
Many of them, like old friends, we've known since childhood. We welcome them each time we see them, even give them permission to lead us around, fully trustin' that what they proclaim, as, "true", is true for us, since they've 'always' been there, since our earliest days.
Others 'ave only recently, been introduced to us by friends an' well meanin' loved ones.
Each time we meet a new fear, we size it up an' decide whether its truely our size, or not. If it fits what we think we know of ourselves, we keep it in our closet, for future use.
If not, we quickly ridicule it, denounce it, send it on its way.
Some are smaller, more beneign, only useful to us, when pointin' towards a direction which we think is 'safe'.
Others are very powerful motivators that we allow to cause us to go WAY out of our way, to avoid confrontin'.
Needless to say, I'm not a super-stitious person. I think we choose our fears. Jus' like we choose any other belief we accept.
Our fears 'ave no 'real' power over us, besides that which we give them. All of them are traitors, an' haters of our souls.
They are not 'universal', otherwise EVERYONE would 'ave a fear of heights, of spiders, of water, of rejection..................which ALL of us do not 'ave.
When we meet one, that agrees with that which we already think 'bout ourselves, or understand 'bout our environment, we quickly align ourselves with it, decide it has a 'proper' place in our lives.
However, when we meet ones that do not agree, or appear to 'ave a proper place, we jus' as quickly, deny their relevance, deny 'em, an' hope they jus' go away.
Our fears are jus' make-believe..........powerless..........jus' mental perceptions......things we CAN 'an WILL overcome if we choose to.
Ya 'ave mine now, so what's yer two cents?
