As I was deleting the massive amounts of spam that comes into my inboxes daily, I had a thought… spam and fear have a few things in common.
They can both be annoying.
They can waste time.
They can stand in the way of getting to the good stuff.
So what if you were to think of fear as a piece of spam? Rather than read it, (falling prey to the falsehood of the message) why not filter it with a truthful message? For example, “I am not enough” could be filtered with the message “I am more than enough”.
Putting fear through a fear filter helps to a) see the fear for what it really is and b) not enable it to take over. Instead you are in charge of what messages get through.
Pam,
What a great analogy. I hope you don't mind if I share this in my meditation class -- giving you credit of course! It certainly gives a new perspective to an old conundrum and the dance of push pull that we all do with fear. This is great. Thanks for the awesome perspective!
Peace and Light,
