Be here NOW

When humanity was created, it was a new experience for the individual who had no way of knowing what was right and good, and what was wrong and bad. Humanity had to be pre-programmed with how to react to certain events.

Danger punched the panic button causing adrenalin to flow and thus a person was given the extra incentive to either stay and fight, or run and hide - this became known as the "fight or flight" syndrome.

Fear is another name for this condition. But, fear can be overcome by knowledge and logical thinking. As a child I recall walking home down the middle of the street at night after having seen a scary movie. When I think back now, I realize I was in more danger from cars than anything I'd seen in that movie.

Things that scared the cr4p out of me when I was ten or eleven, now don't even rate a gasp. Why? because my imagination has been stretched to its limit and nothing scares me any more. I remember also an afternoon when I watched two horror movies and didn't sleep at night without my bicycle lamp turned on under the blankets.

After two nights I had to buy a new battery for it and believe me, I was too scared to ask my parents for the money. I eventually realized that I'd been sleeping in that bed by myself for ten years or more and nothing bad had happened to me. So I beat my fear of horror movies

It wasn't long before I worked out that the biggest fear is of the unknown. I beat that too by thinking how could I be scared of something I didn't know? I guess that now, in this day and age, everyone is scared of dying. Well, that's tough, because you can't avoid it.

Wake up to the fact that it is inevitable and the existence that comes after is going to be worth waiting for. You will experience more warmth, love and light that you ever thought was possible.

Fear can be beaten. But if you don't beat it, the PTB and the negative forces will use it to make you into a whimpering, cowering apology for a human being. Stand up and face your fears, recognize them for exactly what they are, scare mongering to keep you dumbed down.

Take your fears, and in the words of an old song, "put 'em in a box, tie 'em with a ribbon, and throw 'em in the deep blue sea." Doing that will give you the freedom that is yours by right.
