What is frightening is not how fragile we are, but how resilient. The will to survive is strong. We would rather fight on than ever to succumb.
Knowing what can happen reminds us of what we should be doing. There is not a moment to be lost. As long as we live, the struggle will continue.
Fear brings everything to a halt. It is essential to keep things moving. The ones who think only of escape can never elude their greatest adversary.
To run is to leave others behind. The enemy who treats you poorly, will do worse to your loved ones. Everywhere you go, the guilt will surely follow.
The monster under the bed is hungry. Another in the closet waits to draw you into a final embrace. These things conquer us within and then without.
Let fear exist merely on the surface... just enough to keep you from danger. When it rules, it becomes a tyrant. So make sure that it never forgets its place.
Yes, yes, yes. But judge those who you are caring about well. There are literally people out there that are a waste of time. I'm not saying they will bring you down with them or anything. They are just flat out flat lines. You can inspire these people, but they will never do anything with that inspiration.
ReplyDeleteThey must sow better to reap better. But we live in a world of darkness, so it is not easy to know who is worth your time. Let them demonstrate who they are.
DeleteI often hear that we have two choices, to either live in fear or with love. Every choice is based on one or the other, logic is a tool of the fearful whereas love is illogical and breaks the rules. Fear puts you in "the box".
ReplyDeleteLiving in fear makes one a prisoner within their own body. Its purpose is to keep us from things that will hurt us. But it can easily become the problem.
