I am here. And sometimes I am scared. I will still show up. I will refuse to make consequential decisions and take actions solely out of reaction to fear. Noticing the fear, listening to it, allowing it, accepting that it is present creates awareness. Fear is a teacher, as are many emotions that I have been taught by society to shun, to repress. Human experience does not need to be repressed, or, overcome. Humans experience emotions and sensations so that they may understand themselves, their environments and those around them more fully. Emotions and sensations are clues. Repressing them rejects the life that is conspiring to create a field in which wisdom may gather.
