"A further sign of health is that we don’t become undone by fear but we take it as a message that it’s time to stop struggling and look directly at what’s threatening us." - Pema Chodron

Fear is a barrier to healing the past and embracing the possibility of the future. It nags our mind and nips at our heels, looking to express itself through us. The greatest threat to fear is our voice saying “you can’t have me today!” Look fear directly in the face and “stop struggling.” Don’t be “undone;” rather “take it as a message” that we are courageous enough to hear!
