Allowing Fear to Serve.

I was thinking this morning about the aspects of fear.

In any given moment, we may feel its presence; unyielding to the aspirations of will, indifferent to the greater heart within.

Fear knows no boundaries. With calculated precision it moves swiftly past the barriers we’ve erected. In its wake, sorrow paces regret – until we are as in that first moment we were:

Completely exposed.

As children, our fears surface unimpeded. We neither nor crafts stories; our fear just simply ‘is’.

Though, later in life we begin to view fear as a weakness or vulnerability. We challenge its presence through desperate measure, we deny the essence of what it is and means.

Fear shouldn’t be feared, my loves. Rather, it should serve a catalyst to discover that which draws compassion nearer. Sadly though, in denying our fear we create a space for pain to grow.

So, which is it today, my loves? A seed for discovery or a source for our pain?

Let it flow, darlings – let the heart of child decide.

In peace…

Namaste ❤️
