Sheep and fear

I saw something posted on Facebook today about fear and sheep. I modified it slightly to ‘a sheep spends its entire life fearing a wolf will eat it, only to be eaten by the shepherd’.

The thing is, we only die once, yet in the mind, we die thousands of times.

Don’t be a sheep, stay away from the mind and be in the moment, enjoy now, where there is nothing to fear.

Let’s get serious

Well, not really.

Seriousness is a waste of energy and is derived from the mind and its attempts to protect its self-image, the ego. We have to be seen to fit in and be ‘grown-up’, we can not allow ourselves to be exposed, vulnerable or seen as foolish by others.

Laugh, let go, accept, be at peace, see the funny side of things and be able to see the good in everything. It is part of living in the moment and enjoying life, which is a choice we can all make.
