We are afraid of the wrong things...

I agree! We are afraid of a lot of things these days…. the credit crunch, being retrenched as a result thereof, crime, poor health…I can go on and on. But what if we take a step back and think about the bigger scope of life for a change?

If you are going to be afraid of things, might as well see it in the bigger picture, put it in perspective and decide then if you will be wasting you’re time to be afraid of it.

It is easy to say that we ought to be fearless beings but fact remains that there are still things we are afraid of. The catch is just that we need to decide which of these things we are going to allow into our lives and whether we are going to allow ourselves to be phased by it.

And fair enough- if it is legitimate to be afraid of something, then so be it. Identify the problem, figure out what you are going to do about it, do it and let go and stop fearing it….face your fears.

But most importantly one must CHOOSE what is important enough to be scared of.
