Unreasonable fear that our instincts will not be satisfied
drives us to covet the possessions of others,
to lust for sex and power,
to become angry when our instinctive demands
are threatened,
to be envious when the ambitions of others
seem to be met while ours are not.
We eat, drink, and grab
for more of everything than we need,
fearing we shall never have enough...
These fears are the termites
that ceaselessly devour the foundations
of whatever sort of life we try to build.

Thought to Ponder....

I must walk into darkness to find the light
and walk into fear to find peace.
