Default Re: What are you afraid of? Share your hopes and fears!

I skipped reading all posts made, so do point me to one I should've read if what I now type has relevance.

Now, I'm afraid of nothing. I used to be, I used to be afraid of everything.
It all culminated in an episode as a nightwatch guard, called to a break in alarm. Stepping out of my car, I instantly learned I was not alone. This spooked me, alot. I had to quit that job, I laid awake at night hearing things. I was a mess for a few months.

Then, it all let go. I'm not afraid anymore. Like someone else mentioned, I do dislike some things, but it's nothing I won't get passed.

As for hopes, I tend to leave them behind. To me, hope is passiveness. I might have the wrong idea about hope, but the way I see it the verb "to do" beats the **** out of hoping. The power of change is within me, therefor change is what I do and not what I hope I'll do.

PS: I scrolled a little down while typing this and added something to my dislike list. Come on, you can do much better than this...my support to OP and the mods.

I have to put down that before I was awake and aware, I had less fears, and then I really woke up and now my fears are silenced.

I think that having fear is playing in their hand and we can turn that around to our best interest by letting it go and really really feeling the wonderous freedom of ever.

I think your signature Lucrum summarizes it all " Don't worry be happy "

The happiness that we carry is the Love that we share .

Love always

FEAR... Why, I dislike its use. What it causes...

Fear of loss of one's home and income has caused, a man I read about, to
remove his entire family and himself because He didn't want them to suffer.

Fear of a heart attack; Whereas one goes into panic, instead of thinking...
something as simple as coughing is enough to stimulate the heart.
Instead of panic and death.

Fear causes Stress; which willl cause a reaction in the body. We become sick.
Where without that fear we will fight off an illness in a short time.

This is WHY the MSM sell's FEAR... To make one sick, one then moves toward
pharmaceuticals SSRI's; HPV vaccines, vaccines for flu. How many young
girls 9-18 y.o. have been permanently damaged by this pharmaceutical. How
many more will die at the hands of a doctor. Who is practicing. Doing what
a Drug Rep. says to script.

So, When one comes HERE and wants to spread FEAR I react. I Have been in
War. And, was wounded very badly... I survived ' I believe ' because There
is a purpose. There Is a reason... I, know I am HARD; but, I also have a soft
chewy center... But, I have saved lives... A lot of lives. For the work that I
did.

This IS a community. With Gates... When, one joins he is given a code
to enter and in this case holds a handful of flyers to pass out. The
guard (Mod) is off. Doing what guards do when they are off. A member
confronts the one with these flyers preaching FEAR and the member
says don't pass those out in here. The guard shows up and say let him
pass his flyers. No harm No foul. Let him pass his FEAR in our community.

And, one brought a list of FEAR Keywords... I don't believe I was wrong. Still.
Now, I ask YOU... Why one would bring a list to our community... To spread
FEAR. Again, I say Why... What purpose did it serve. Once again I'm
Made to go along to get along. So, it is with Anchor and I... We agree to disagree But,
HE holds the KEYS. Sooo, I must BOW...?


Trooly,


Tango

For I understand...
You would give your life away to save a thousand..
And you would rather shout fear away than to give it a chance to slip in .
You love us as your children and for this I respect you.
You have your own role to play and you do it with integrity.
It can be rude and harsh at times.
Maybe you have to learn to contain yourself a litle ..
I am not the one to judge this .

I fear losing everything I have and ending up on the street. I try not to dwell on it but right now, it's getting pretty hairy.

I understand your motive Fiiish. Your intend was not to ask people to focus on fear, but rather facing them with courage. You have all my respect for this. I think your true intention was not understood by many here. It is ok.

Nevertheless, the thread is interesting and has a high value. Simply ignoring fear as it was a highly contagious cancer is certainly not the way to meet with our true power. My experience showed me that it is the opposite. Facing your fear is how you can cross the door leading to the crossroad of worlds.

On the other hand, I also understand why some people did not appreciate this thread. It can be interpreted as contemplating your fear. If you stare in the darkness too long, you will bring something back with you from there. You might printed your matrix a little further. You might get overwhelmed by your fears.

If you have many fears hunting you. Take them one at a time. One by one, beginning with the easiest to deal with. Face them... With the certitude you can get over it with dedication and knowledge. Go step by step, don't rush anything. Go progressively at your own rhythm. Start facing them into your own mind, if you succeed in your consciousness, you will succeed in reality.

And take time to contemplate what it will be to live without them. Focus on yourself, into action, without this fear. Feel the freedom and the joy... Never loose this focus and you will see your fear will fade away...

I hope it helped.

Namaste, Steven

If there is anything one should do at all for someone who fears it's to support him and help along with enough Love and compassion that the prison he was in eases off.
True life deals in subtilities not plain dichotomies.

I think we are being encouraging and supportive and compassionate here at forum by reminding ourselves and one another to face any fears, transcend them,be in love. It's not ignoring the fact that one has fears, it's an invitation to higher ground. We want to grow together.

Love Always,

Humble lose every fear and the universe is going to bring all you need at all times.
It is the moment that I lost everything that meant to me that I was brought back to life.
For when that moment arrived all my fears dropped at the same time.

Love always

How beautiful of you to share that, Mudra. My heart felt your words. It truly illustrates what is said about
gain disguised as loss. The hardest blow of all can enlighten our beings. It is also said that we are loved beyond measure, and we are shown this when we least expect it. But also we can expect it.

Love Always,
Bushycat

Namaste Steven I see it this way ...Fiish 's post triggered several viewpoints ...the diversity of those is what makes up understanding.
We all share a part of the truth .

I like the course this thread has taken, each one expressing their views on what fear means to them, how it has impacted their lives and reaching out to others in understanding and clarity.

I feel differences of opinion are like two opposing energies coming together creating a wonderful paradox, a force to be reckoned with, an explosion of vibrant energy that can be used as a catalyst for powerful change, deep introspection, to break a pattern, or spell, one is under about themselves or their life.

IMO This is another reason why Avalon offers such a richness, a beautiful multi-textured tapestry woven with many ideas, emotions, love and hard hitting reality....the microcosm we create here is a reflection of the global macrocosm.


Time for beddy bye,,,,good night all
