Fear.
False
Evidence
that
Appears
Real.
Fear and Love can not exist at the same time.
I can go on and on with quotes about Fear.
In my life I have allowed over and over for Fear to rule my life.
I deceived myself that my FEAR was actually LOVE.
I stayed in relationships and friendships and familyships out of FEAR of losing those relationships.
Fast forward to this day and I was given a book about boundaries and in reading that book I discovered that the LOVE I said I had for the people in my life was really just FEAR.  I accepted their control so I would have LOVE.
Now I LOVE myself and set boundaries.  I understand and am still learning that as I set boundaries with people who LOVE themselves they will not be upset about the boundaries because they already have boundaries themselves.  Boundaries are for people who LOVE themselves. Boundaries don't control or seek to control another person. Boundaries express LOVE. Boundaries do not operate in FEAR or out of FEAR.
Of course all of this is a process.
On some days I get it; on other days I run from it.
Process means  you fall down and you get back up. And you keep at it till it becomes your TRUTH.

You have a 'FEAR' story and want to share?  

Please chime in.

Peace & Love
