DEC. 18TH 2009

the lonesome dove fear is ubiquitous - and understandable. what we're afraid of, after all , is the unknown. thats the biggest fear that most of us face. fear of the unknown. and most change throws us into the path of the unknown. not all change, but most of it some change takes us to a place to which we've been before - and thats what we fear. most change though is not that predictable. most change leaves us in that space of unknowing what will be.

and so, we walk with apprehension ( thats just a softer word for fear) sometimes what change brings us is the fear that we will never get to where we want to go ; that life will continue to do nothing but take away our hope and our dreams , rob us of our opportunities , kill our spirit and strip of us of raison d 'erre .all of this is normal. it's understandable that you would feel this way. after all, life has done some of these things. and always damage has come in the form of something that has changed.


so it's good to be aware that a certain amount of fear is going to accompany every change in your life - a change for the worst or a change for the better. knowing this can stop you from moving into fear about change itself. if you start fearing change , you could wind up never making any kind of change at all in your life ... even the changes that obviously should be made for your own good. you're not going to stop change from happening simply by not making them yourself....life will & thats just how things are. ....from the book " when everything changes -- change everything " by neal donald walsch
