Trascend the fear

Sometimes it’s when your back feels against the wall

When you’re being hit in a lot of directions

By things that are producing very high levels of anxiety

Be it stress

Financial crisis

Family issues

Health issues

Up to

Life or death situations

And everything in between

When you are being challenged in ways you aren’t sure you’re even adept at

It’s when you can shine the most

It’s when something inside of you either grows or dies

It’s here where challenging the fight or flight response works best

It’s neither

We don’t live in that age

It’s mindfulness

It’s being completely aware (As much as possible at least)

And not letting the terror strike you down

Not letting the fear grasp onto you and take control

It’s finding a way to that inner peace

That we all carry inside

Not letting outside forces

Good or bad

Derail us from the calmness within

There can be joy

There can be music

Dancing

Laughing

Merriment

Peace doesn’t have to be somber

Inner peace is true freedom

Plain and simple

And true freedom doesn’t come with any walls

Not in your mind

Not in your heart

Not in your soul
