Step from the Barren Deserts of Fear to the Riches of a Life Lived

Fear is not real; it is your mind, your ego trying to keep you safe.

When you were a child, it was important that you learned the lessons of what was and what wasn’t; your mind, your ego has held on to that learning and helped to create a learned behaviour of “What if’s”.

You are no longer that child, you have grown and you have learnt a lot about life. You know that a flame is hot and that if you touch it you will get burned.

You understand that if you jump off a tall building or out of a plane without a parachute or step in front of a moving car you could be injured or even killed. Life has taught you what could physically hurt you.

Fear is not about physical pain, it is about emotional pain.

Emotional pain comes in many forms, embarrassment, rejection, feeling a failure, not being good enough, unworthy, unlovable, useless, to name but a few.

These feelings have been caused by things that have happened in your life and by things that others have said or done.

One thoughtless or unguarded word can hurt a child so badly; can leave him or her emotionally scarred for life.

In the majority of cases the comments, remarks were just that, thoughtless, they weren’t even meant; the sayer may even have been joking, trying to have a little fun with you.

But you were a child, you didn’t understand that, you heard the words and they hurt you right to the core of your being.

Children see things, maybe we should say hear things in black and white; they take everything literally because they do not understand the nuances.

If you said “I can’t do that for a toffee”, which just means I can’t do something, they could ask if you could do it for a piece of chocolate. They have taken you literally.

To children their parents are gods, everything is possible, so if they made a promise to do something and didn’t because of circumstances outside their control, the child just sees that they were let down; they don’t understand about outside conditions that can affect situations.

So many people’s behaviour comes from their experiences in childhood, how they have been treated. Did they feel loved, wanted, treasured, were they hugged and cuddled.

If a parent grew up in a secure loving family, they are more likely to give this to their own children.

If however they grew up in what felt like an insecure unloving family, they are most likely to perpetuate that within their own.

It doesn’t mean they don’t love their children, far from it; in the majority of cases they just don’t know how to be any different because they haven’t learned.

You are very special, let go of the fear of rejection; first and foremost love yourself, trust in, believe in and honour yourself. What others think of you and your choices for your life is what is going on in their life, it has nothing to do with you, it is their stuff.

When you learn to love yourself, open to the amazing Being that You are.

The truth of what we are telling you here will empower you to let go of all the hurt and pain, to open to the possibilities and opportunities that life has to offer, without fear of judgement and rejection.

You will realise that fear isn’t real, that it has created a desert in your life and now it is time to step from that desert into the lush gardens of living; yes there will be mountains to climb, rivers to ford, roads to walk and oceans to cross but when you live from your heart and encourage your ego to help make those choices happen, you will never find yourself in a dessert again.
