Hi All...

Life is life, things to learn, actions, choices, thoughts and deeds.. how often have we or do we run from seeing what we should... what fear is within that we would sooner turn the other cheek... and hide? only another time, be it one month, one year even longer, are we confronted with same, similar or harder circumstances.. yet we still may not look or even want to look...

Life is full of twists and turns... we may even repeat things that are not lessons, we may just repeat because of our own sheer stupidity.. or even, repeat things to prove to ourselves we were right all along about things... maybe that is not running... maybe that is the I am right and we need to feel this to prove a point?

Things just get me thinking... and what we do in our lives, and I would think many of us have done the above in some form or another.

RE: When we run? or Facing Up

Well Flower, neat question.;)

I've often run, I've hidden from many things, but not now.

Now I face things and make decisions, but not alone. I call on the Higher Source for help, I turn my conundrums over. 'Let Be Let God.' You always get an answer.

Yes you are so right, a month a year a week later if we do not face our fears we are confronted with them again, in a harsher form.

Have you ever read the book 'Feel the Fear and Do it Anyway?' Scott Peck. Well worth it.

But, hey, it takes Sainthood to overcome the fears life throws at you. Life is HARD and rough and tough,, and there are decisions to make which are not ever easy peasy lemon squeezy.

Part of life is running away, part of it is the realisation you have to stop and face it. It really doesn't matter inthe end as long as you achieve something out of it all, some learning, some experience some joy.

love and Light

Run if you want face it if you want but just party as you do it ha ha

Just remember that you are awesome what ever you do and it dose not mean any thing in what ever you do just do it and do it for just to experience it see what happens
And if it dose not work for you try another way off experiencing it next time

have fun in this game all your life
you are the rule maker of this game and you can change them
and be you for you are awesome

love brent

Hi Gilly

Many have read that book feel the fear etc.. but I think at times I must be the only that has not lol.....

I think.. what is a fear? do we have fears, or is it just issues that we need to deal with? to me a fear is like getting on a aeroplane.. oh my hate flying... to me a fear is a fear of also doing something.. but saying that, if we at times need to look back on our lives, there may be a fear of not wanting to see certain things, that we may get that lurching feeling in our stomach...

Some say, if we dont look at our issues etc, then we cant move on, but if this path for a better word is about the spirit experiencing all that there is emotional wise.. then maybe an issues is not an issue as such, but to experience.. and let go?

Yes Gilly it does take a saint over come fears etc

I do think yes life is about running as well as facing.. and maybe more running lol

Absolutely right, Flower, and to add just a wee bit, I believe some people are afraid of actually SUCCEEDING, which is sad, but, perhaps that in itself carries too much responsibility.

Not just in jobs or marriages etc., but success in relationships all around, that demands committment, compassion and energy for example and that can be daunting to someone who feels inadequate. But we are all inadequate in many ways, it is this life which forces us to confront those feelings and try to overcome them, and this leads us directly back to fear. Overcoming fear is HARD.

Love and Light

Hi Gilly.....

Oh yes.. so right.. we are all inadequate in many ways, and how often do we role play these inadequacies? and repeat time after time, maybe thats why we also run, because we do not know how to sort these out? sometimes I feel our biggest fears are things that are assocaited with the positive feel in life.. love.. how often de we fear love, is it that we just know now how to express, will we get hurt, we by being loved, allow to be controlled... being happy another positive aspect in our lives, but how easy it is to be negative, why bother to laugh, what is there in life to laught about.. oh this is not me lol.. thinking out aloud .. why be happy, can that be taken away from us.. and the list goes on and on.. I now believe that life is too short, and I should live life to do the best I can and make most of circumstances around me, accept life as a challange, even though hard at times lol... esp when things crash down lol..
