Fear


Fear ~such a little word to hold so much power. Why do we give it power? There are so many wonderful things going on in my life right now. Why am I holding on to fear? Fear is a safety net, I think. If I fear; then if something goes in a different direction than I had hoped,  I can’t be disappointed, can I? I think what started out as caution has over the years become fear. Why when children are small and self confident do we tell them they are know-it-alls, and no one likes a know-it-all. Is it to teach us/them caution? Do we fear that they may be right? Where is the balance between caution and fear?

A t the moment it seems as though the better my life gets the more closely I wrap the fear around me.  What on earth am I thinking? Obviously I’m not, or I am too much. I think Ego may be getting in the way a little here.  I looked one of my biggest fears in the face the other day (my weight), and while I haven’t released it yet. I have opened the door and faced it. I am pretty proud of that step, and today with help, I will release it. I realized the other day that I had become judgmental (My Mother is rolling over in her grave, right now over that one). And that I had become judgmental because of fear. Fear of being Fat ( which by the way I am fifty pounds overweight, so seems a little silly to fear it). There I said the word! And I feel awful that I said it, let alone think it.  But I have opened the door, and I don’t like what I saw, so today I change that! Sounds simple I know but it is once you are ready, it is!

So with the help of my good friend Lorraine ( who is an alternative healing therapist, and a GREAT lady), I will face fear again and release it. I will begin another step on my own journey of healing .  SO… “Fear today I greet you and thank you for being in my life to teach me lessons I needed to learn, but now I release you  from my life and step into the light and a healthier more balanced mindset.”

Blessings all I am off to Lorraine’s~
