TOO MUCH FEAR-----

FEAR FEAR AND MORE FEAR! It seems to me that this is one of today's main slogans.People  really seem to be quite paranoid most of the time.I appreciate that  we are caught up in a society full of pressure from an accelarated life-style where  money so often seems the priority,  and people have lost the simple art of living together in a caring, sharing way. So  much closedness! Doors closed and locked, cars locked,people locked up inside themselves in a paralysis of fear and suspicion, all trust has vanished.Surely we can't call this life and living.

Ofcourse I don't have the answer, but living in an increasingly bureaucratised society, where rules and regulations are the order of the day, and no named person seems in charge or responsible, does not appear to be working. Individual responsibility is minimal, people become enslaved or apathetic, and fear increases.

Many people are conscientiously trying to work at this positively, with a blend of firmness,  compassion,opening out to Life and others in a way that goes beyond selfishness and ego-centredness. I try too, then to my dismay fear snatches me into its grip in a chilling way.How often I struggle to move beyond a fear that  know to be irrational,and concentrate on the good and lovely things in Life, because I know there are many.I try to forget about myself and move out to others, and this certainly helps.

I am more and more convinced though, that at this stage in the world we all need extra help.If only we could all really believe in a loving Supernatural Being who has an organic Plan:who although he has given Humanity free will, knows that deep down it really wants what is best, so he is ready to show it what that means.Perhaps he has in store a final momentum of life -giving energy, that can only be used with love because it is its very source. Perhaps he will offer it and people will respond. They will work with him freely to help restore the world.People as they should be, the world as it should be, love light peace and power prevailing , -----Fear has disappeared.
