In a comment to my post called Do you Fear, Fear Itself, Mary left a comment saying
“I think fear doesn’t exist when you become excited about life and possibilities.”
Mary…thank you for helping me. I think you are right
- We all feel the fear because our life has changed. It is adjusting to that change that is the process of grief.
- We are so busy thinking so much about the effect of death that we forget about life. Because death is so final, I think we can start fearing our own mortality and instead of living each moment…..we cope with each moment.
To turn the fear around I need to think about life, rather than death. I need to think about living not just breathing. I need to think about possibilities rather than problems.
