The difference is in what you do next. If fear leads you to act better, it's functional. If he leads you not to act, he has already stopped taking care of you.
Sit him down, look at him every time he comes and ask him, what did he come to warn us about and we must ask him to be part of the solution. Besides, fear does not move in a straight line. It spirals forward. That's why we come across the same issues again. It's not that we failed, it's that we now have the necessary awareness to delve into a situation that we couldn't see before.
At my age I understood that I did not come to control the work. I came to live in it. We don't choose the storms, or the absences, or the closing doors.
But we do choose how to respond... by being in the present tense. Every morning we wake up is a victory. It is our act of love and transcendence.
Today he asked me what small action am I going to inhabit this day with? Let's not be afraid, when we feel empty. It's not that something is wrong. It's that something is about to be born. It is the space between who we were and who we are about to be. Let's not fill that space as much as possible with so much noise caused by fear, let's just habituate it.
That's where our next version is born. It happened to me. I asked myself: so, now who am I? Like all my masks fell off. I lost my ego. I felt anxiety and fear. I was in the middle of the night, out of my shadows. I had left the comfort zone behind, but I was very far from the light, where I supposed to find spirituality.
Terrified, I opted to play it safe again. I had a bad time... I'm a little better now. There is a time for everything. It looks like she wasn't ready yet.We do not fight against good and evil. We struggle with our interpretations. Now, it all depends on the mind with which we look at our fear. And that's where all the conflict starts. Sometimes it's not that our life is in chaos. Is that we are trying to sustain a relationship that hurts us, a decision that we have been postponing or a version of us that no longer represents us. And while we're in the midst of all that, it's hard to see clearly. Starting with the creative void, that space, with the perfect silence to manifest, the creative inspiration!...
It's a strange feeling of peace not uncomfortable, different can even be pleasant, and you start to notice the absence of shadows, and the fear saying calm down, they're gone!!!
Letting go of fear is very, very satisfying... And to sleep peacefully is to know that even if you ever make a mistake, today you fulfilled your values, your words and your promises.
