More Fear

Sure enough, to test my hypothesis, I wrote a new article for authorsden.com, and again I placed the word "fear" in the title, and again the response has been tremendous. It proves to me the preponderance of fear that has captured us. People feeling fear are actually looking for it! It is like the saying, "misery loves company". Fear seeks fear, the Law of Attraction realized. Somehow, we MUST remove the fear in our lives and replace it with something a little more productive. How about Love? Will Love attract Love, the way fear has attracted fear? Fear removes your personal power and hands it over to other interests. Who is pulling your strings and why have you given them permission to? Replace fear with Love and imagine the world we may create!

Fear

After I joined authorsden.com I began composing articles for readers with an interest in all things Spiritual. My third article expressed my feelings about the fear a lot of people are feeling relating to Global Warming and Climate Change. The word "fear" was in the title for the piece and the response to that article was tenfold over my previous articles. Why? After much consideration I began to realize that in the present day many of us are consumed by fear, concerning just about anything. Climate Change, Politics, Health Care, Economics, War, Peace....some among many more the world seems to be anxious about, and beyond anxious, downright fearful. Fear is beginning to take over rational thought, and we know about the Law of Attraction: Fear can only produce more Fear.

Fear, I believe, is a natural reaction to the unknown. It is a Spiritual call for heightened awareness because a new experience is beginning. When stepping into the unknown, all the senses must be employed and we should become totally alert. As the human experience always involves choice, each of us makes a decision concerning a new fear before us, and those involved in the study of all things creature label this decision "fight or flight". Fight is simply the acceptance of the challenge, whatever it is. Flight is the decision to avoid this new experience at all costs, and many times the cost turns out to be a personal one.

In change is growth and as change is the only constant, fear of change has a retarding affect. Resistance to change brings only pain. The challenge then is to be open to change, to accept it into our lives and to use the abilities we all have to purposely direct ourselves through it. See feelings of fear as the invitation of life to move forward.
