No need to look friend. Things that want to devour us will always exist. They will always find us.
The point of this is to balance it and use it as a tool to survive. Not run around in hysteria.
Mastery consists not in abnormal dreams, visions and fantastic imaginings or living, but in using the higher forces against the lower — escaping the pains of the lower planes by vibrating on the higher. Transmutation, not presumptuous denial, is the weapon of the Master.

Well, perhaps I'm wrong here but I actually don't sense fear here perse, just a lot of interest and caring and sharing.
I tend to think perhaps we could surmise many *wouldn't* be here posting at all, instead of would, if there was truly fear considering many of the topics.
But that's just my take on it, obviously others may feel differently.
The one place I do actually sense fear though is among those out in The World, 'afraid' to be the lone voice standing out in the crowd, so terrified of rejection and alienation that they simply go along with the direction of the herd right or wrong.
But here? well not so much.

Here is what's sad. In a post apocalyptic world then I too would shoot the first person who stepped on my doorstep. WHY? Because I was conditioned not to trust anyone in the pre-apocalyptic world.
Some guy and his small child would get shot up by the folks on here because they were conditioned not to trust anyone before the apocalypse.
Personally, I don't want to live in that world with you guys. You folks can have your "trust no one" world.

They are sucking it out of you without your knowing. You do not have to give it. They are not asking to come inside. They are stealing your energy.
It is more like, everyone starts out with 100 units of life energy. Then people grow up and somehow get the idea owning a car equals 1 unit of energy, it's something to be happy about, it adds to one's happiness and the better the car, the more units of energy. But if one does not own a car, that is like a -1 energy unit, so anyone not getting a car now has 99 units of energy. Having the right clothes, +1, having anything else -1. Being ugly, -1 to -10 units, being pretty +1 to +10. Seldom anyone gets back to 100 units.
Most people lose a lot of energy units simply by attending school. University, +10 units, anything below becomes less units, no education becomes minus units. Having children, +10 units for each child. At a certain age, usually between 18 and 30 an individual may be down to 50 energy units, anything below 50 become "rejects", losers, misfits and need medication to get back and above 50 again.
Those energy units do not go between people like it's money or some other tangible object. You lose a + unit and it becomes a - unit and it's difficult to make that minus a positive again. It isn't stolen, taken away, given, it just turns evil. It's all in the mind, nowhere else.edit on 16/5/2011 by Dragonfly79 because: (no reason given)
