Love Is The Absence Of Fear

Love Is The Absence Of Fear

By Bart Sharp

yellow flowerLove is the absence of fear.  Or our original or true state of being is love and fear takes us from the path of that.  The complexity and varieties of ways that we create fear is amazing.  Our society lives in so many subtle ways of fear that takes us away from enjoying who we are.  Love.

For example the common thought that we do not have enough time in our day to get things done comes from a fear that we are not complete in ourselves so what we do is not enough.  Frustrations of being in a traffic jam in the definition that we will be thrown off schedule is a lack of faith that things in our life will not work out.  We skew our perspective by making time the fear.

When we project onto another person of their wrongness there is generally a fear that we could or have done the same thing.  Our judgment of another is the fear we would be less than or have been less than in that situation.  Something within us reacts in fear.

The more that we recognize the stress, dislikes, conflicts, projections etc… we begin the process of detaching from them.  When we can see how we create a fear and how we are invested in it we start to let it go.  When we see the lies of fear and step out of them we live in a different perspective.  Something opens inside of us, self-love.
