Fear

Today I am aware of and experiencing some generalized fears about the future, something I call galloping fear since it can switch from one potential event to another very quickly and without reason. The fears are not real but my conscious mind believes them. I like the comment by Williamson, that "Love is what we were born with. Fear is what we have learned here. The spiritual journey is the relinquishment—or unlearning—of fear and the acceptance of love back into our hearts. Love is the essential existential fact. It is our ultimate reality and our purpose on earth. To be consciously aware of it, to experience love in ourselves and others, is the meaning of life." I have learned the fears well!
