FEAR seems to be running rampant these days.
Whether it is fear of terrorists, “other” religions, immigrants,
people whose skin color are different than ours, people who are wealthy, people who are poor,
those who don’t speak our language, those from different countries, or those who belong to an opposing political party fear is everywhere.
Fear always offers us an endless array of individuals and groups to lay blame at their feet for our fear or pain.
But if you have chosen to awaken to your spiritual nature, you no longer have the luxury of placing blame for your fear on another.
We all are responsible for our feelings and the actions they may propel us to take against or for another.
I realize it can be hard work especially when we are being bombarded daily with fear and hate mongering.
But unfortunately, just because something is hard does not relinquish our responsibility to stay conscious of our choices, words, and actions.
You can feed the fear, and like a hunger piranha, it will strip you down to the bone, OR you can choose to vanquish it through LOVE.
It is your choice. It is always your choice!
Until next time be the light the world needs and stay in love for all.
