Each individual holds as many sources of fear as a tree bears leaves and in each leaf must rise the brilliant colour of its death before it falls and before it crumbles into the Earth preparing for new growth to be found We offer these as possible places of resistance which may be shared: Fear of failure: What if I try what if I dare to show myself and my dreams to define myself as one who believes in these possibilities and then when the dream fails I am exposed in my foolishness this hidden aspect of me? Fear of loss of control: What if I become lost in the direction chosen by others and my voice is no longer heard and then I am forced to be a part of something that reveals my deeper fear that I am not safe that I am not loved at all? Fear of exposure: What if in my attempt to be honest I reveal too much and instead of admiration for my courage I receive judgement about the truth of the shadows I hold inside? Fear of loss: What if I am not good enough after all and something I say or do casts me out takes me from this place where I seek love and acceptance for all that I am? Fear of loss of faith: What if I cannot do it? What if I try and we all try and then we are proven wrong in our dreams and this daring to step out and say I have an answer will collapse upon us and we will be revealed as false dreamers after all? Fear of self-blame: What if I am asked to re-evaluate my perspective of my Self to see that what I thought was self-love is in fact a bravado that covers up deep fears of inadequacy so deep that I have not yet named them not to my friends and not to myself? And yet here lies the greatest gift that the whole of you can offer to each of you and it is a depth of Love that is such honesty the kind that begins in knowing that there are no exceptions to the policy of self-responsibility and so no truths need be hidden no topics off limits and no love can be lost for it is infinite and unconditional and so we are forgiven even though there is nothing to forgive Try this and speak today of any attempts to control the outcome of your vision and how instead you might surrender to the power of Trust This is the nature of growth but remember that the man who first speaks the words I am afraid is all the wiser when it becomes his turn to say and this is what I dream You are indeed among the chosen but it is when you become even more aware of the vast power of your inner choices that you will set all victims free The only thing that ever stands in your way is your own fear for are you not the Love of which you dream? Be brave and braver still for your hearts will travel to the ends of the Earth with every inward truth they dare at last to see ~ excerpt A New Humility
