The Final Four Fears

Posted by Nancy on Jan 30, 2012

Today I would like to talk about the last four “ghosts of fear”.

 

The Fear of Ill Health

The mind is a fertile place where a small seed of thought can grow into fear, if we let it.

Too much time spent feeding this fear can actually manifest itself into that which we fear.

 

The Fear of Loss of Love

Affairs of the heart can make or break a person.

The pains (and the joys) reach to both extremes.

Symptoms of this fear include jealousy and fault finding.

 

The Fear of Old Age

We need to look at the root causes of this fear.

Perhaps we fear living in poverty in our golden years.

Maybe we fear age related disability or illness that may forfeit our independence.

 

The Fear of Death

I believe this is a fear of the unknown.

Is there anything after death … heaven … hell?

Fear has its place in our survival, but this is not that place.

Death is one of those things in life that is inevitable. Fearing it and worrying about it will not change the inevitability of it.

Whether death is a transition to something else or merely a final end to everything, we do not know. So why spend time and energy on the unknown?

 

Till next time …
