FEAR

A four letter word that really packs a punch, more than ever before in this life we are living. The thoughts, the reasons, the assumptions, the inaccuracies around those four letters. Zig Ziglar said it best, “FEAR equals FALSE EVIDENCE APPEARING REAL”. Numerous times, I have found this truth in my life, I was swirling, whirling, bobbing, weaving too fast to EVEN consider my present state of affairs, to slow down, and consider Zig’s words. “False evidence appearing real”. Pandemics, riots in the streets, tuning out negative, inaccurate news…seeking out my own truth. The powerful tool of social media where so many great happenings are shared, but can quickly can be flipped right over, with negative posts, downright lies. Verify your news, stay with positive folks, help someone if you can- EDUCATE yourself on COVID, I suggest the NDC as a great first start. https://www.cdc.gov/ FIND your own facts, take a beat to be mindful, breath. Let TRUTH be your new word, not fear. Pass it on, lift up a friend, SMILE behind that mask, and you and this wacky world will be a better place for it. In peace and safety, Larice
