"Don't give in to your fears. If you do you won't be able to talk to your heart."
Paulo Coelho, "The Alchemist
Fear and love are spiritual and energetic opposites. They are mutually exclusive. If you are full of love, there is no room for fear. Conversely, if you are full of fear, there is no room for love.
When your heart is half and half, you are stuck. Something has to give, the fear needs to go.
Love is freedom. Love is peace. Love is the absence of fear. No fear of rejection, no fear of abandonment, no fear of loss.
The reality of life is that you will most likely be rejected sometimes. You might be abandoned, and you will certainly suffer loss of some sort. These experiences are a natural part of life. It is not these blows that rob us of love. It is the fear of these experiences that steal the joy from us.
When we let the fear of loss prevent us from fully living then we have given into our fears and can no longer communicate with our heart. Our heart will be shut off, disconnected, and dormant. The raging negative emotion of fear will rule the day and in the attempt to prevent us from future hurts, will disconnect us for all that is worthwhile in life.
