Avoid the Fear , remember the passage , pass it on to future generations. Our most important purpose.
“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
― Frank Herbert, Dune
This hits hard, mostly because I feel that I’ve changed and lost so much already… and we haven’t hit the brunt of it. My family was particularly hard hit by the Covid restrictions and we’ve finally worked our way back to making ends meet. Watching inflation creep up and slowly push us back into the hole is terrifying.
Hang in there friend. The reward on the other side will be worth the battle/war. Most of us have lost like you - jobs, friends, family and financial security. Evil cannot win if we have courage and resolve. Stay close to the Lord.
I appreciate the comments, Oldgal. I know we’re on a path to a better world for all, and that really is keeping me going at this point. I hope that with whatever happens, we as a society can band together and prevent the bulk of this evil they have planned for us.
“What seems threatening is just the echo of the fear in my own heart.”
Haruki Murakami

Probably my favorite quote from Dune.
Powerful tool it is. Control it you must , but you must fear to avoid Hubris.

No doubt the Storm is well upon us. We are indelibly changed already. My how bright and shiny we'll be on the way out!
God help us. Bring about the Last Trump!
