Are the enemies of peace. Fear drives us to do things we should not do. It also keeps us from doing what we should. Hope keeps us sitting still wishing or the answer to fall in our lap. Hope is uncertainty. Empty your mind of these. An empty mind is not the same as an empty heart. In the empty mind fear cannot grab hold. Accept the now. Forgive the now. The world before your eyes is only an illusion of the mind. Your world, your life, your mind, is in your hands. You are always in control, whether you know it or not. The past and the pain in held are only illusions. The firing of neurons recalling the pain. But the pain is not here, it is within and you can choose to keep calling it back over and over or you can stop. You can look at the world with fresh eyes and see it as it is now. Release the fear and open your heart again. The point of living is to be happy. You cannot be happy if you choose to hold onto a painful past. It's your choice. Always has been, always will be. You can choose to let it go and walk towards happiness. Happiness also resides inside. It is peace of mind and gratitude for what you have now. Hold that in your heart.
