Fears 6/29/2006 10:24:21 AM
What are our fears? We have a natural 'fight or flight' response to any circumstance in life. How we choose which is about our own ability to remain calm in the storm of life.
We fear most that which is unknown to us. Death holds the fear that we can believe, but are sometimes not sure, that there is a continuity of life following death. Most people believe in this idea with many different concepts looked at to define it.
The quote: We are more afraid of our successes...gives a little pause to the ego and motivations of our lives. Are we special enough to fulfil our dreams and goals? Of course we are...but our mental conditioning in all things of life teaches us otherwise.
Consider...the first words we speak...NO! This comes from what is being said to us and the negative comes first. We have a natural instinct to think negativity...it is a little like water running down a hill...it finds it natural path in negativity. If we think positive...it requires a conscious effort of change of thought.
We can sow seeds of our future....but as we are negative first, that is what will manifest. Life is about making it a positive experience.
