Fear of Death.....Fear of the Unknown....Fear of Loss

These are deeply ingrained systems of thought within our consciousness...that shape our participations unconsciously in a lot of ways. This has has been my resustls of investigating....I started to really question my participations...and slow down to think and and ask questions...and realized....woah...it's like our whole world ways of thinking....educated, indoctrinated into us...have been a sort of weary way of going....Governance through fear.

Like you say:

most times people wants to see someone test the waters before they jump in. lol.

which indicates a sort of self-imposed 'inferiority' mind-construct....wheres it's like needing a hero of sorts....an Authority to make sure everything is OK...someone greater to take care of things.

I'm reminded now of how our real power is in 'taking responsibilty'...our ability to respond....direct situations....figure things out....Investigate....test things. This is where Creation Happens....the one's willing to take risks, despite the fears that come to mind...and are willing to explore and really walk into the unknown...and yes that will be uncomfortable at times most definitely...because there isn't the comfort of knowing the result....but really that's the adventure in living for real on the 'cutting edge' of time.

Steem On,
The Dream is Live,
You Have a Golden Ticket.

I really enjoyed your post...sharing the process you walked and reflected upon.

And I enjoyed your comment here above....it really got me thinking.

Pardon the loose style of my writing here....just wanted to get everything out on the paper here as what was coming to mind. What you talk about is things that are close to my heart.

I love taking the plunge and doing the big deep dive off the cliff....always way less of a big deal after it's done the first time....but still pretty significant :)
