Fear Not!
The country seems upside down with all the news programs spreading fear and destruction. Don’t get me wrong, I love to hear the news–I want to keep up to date with what’s happening in the world, but bottom line, you have nothing to fear if you are sitting at a computer and reading this blog right now…the sun has not fallen from the sky and the moon is still pulling our oceans around.
You are not being flooded, blown away, being shot at, or in the Senate voting on a bill. You are free, you are alive and you are safe. It’s important to remember these things and to make the positive, good things about life be the focus of your energy.
I hear people talking about how these days are some of the worst in history….well are they? Really? I’ve visited the Tower of London and seen how people used to be hung, drawn and quartered just for stealing a bread crumb…or saying something against the king!
Today, we can write blogs, send emails, have discussions in the street and homes about how we feel. That’s big! That’s very big. It’s callled freedom of speech. What it’s not called is, “I’m so scared and afeared.” We are in an amazing time of life. No matter what your gender or color, you can vote. Yes, you can go to the poles and vote for a peaceful nation. Vote for someone who doesn’t want us to go to war on other nations…vote for healthcare, education and putting an end to poverty in our wonderful natiion.
Let’s come from love, acceptance, joy, happiness and peace. We don’t have to buy into the politics of fear and of lack. We do make a difference and we do that when we vote. More importantly, we do that when we communicate to our loved ones from a place of joy, and of love.
Just one last thought. When you want to bring energy from a positive attitude, it doesn’t mean you have to lie down and let people walk over you. No, you stand up and you speak what’s important in your heart. The difference is that you listen to the other person….you don’t always say…so and so doesn’t understand. You can find points to agree about…that’s what brings about a peaceful world. Rock N Roll Val & Jeff
