Fear: a different perspective

I got this from somebody who was referred to only as Tim. He has created a powerful image and given us a new way to look at our fears:


Imagine that you are a small child and have been told to draw the most frightening thing you can think of. And to draw the next most frightening thing ... and so on.


Now think what it would be like if you forgot that the instruction came from somebody outside you, that it was your own. Then becoming convinced that it was your nature to draw these horrific images.


As you keep on you forget that you are the one doing the drawing. Until eventually you forget that these are just drawings but rather a vision of your future unfolding before you.
