Quote by Marilyn Ferguson

Fear is a question: What are you afraid of, and why? Just as the seed of health is in illness, because illness contains information, our fears are a treasure house of self-knowledge if we explore them.

Fear is a question: What are you afraid of, and why? Just as

Summary

This quote emphasizes that fear should not be seen as a negative emotion, but rather as an opportunity for self-reflection and growth. It suggests that we should examine our fears and understand why they exist, as they hold valuable insights about ourselves. Similar to how illness can reveal clues about our overall well-being, our fears hold information that, if explored, can help us gain a deeper understanding of who we are and what makes us vulnerable. By confronting and learning from our fears, we have the potential to discover hidden strengths and transform ourselves into more resilient individuals.

When all the world is young, lad, And all the trees are gree

When all the world is young, lad, And all the trees are green;And every goose a swan, lad,And every lass a queen;Then hey for boot and horse, lad,And round the world away;Young blood must have its course, lad,And every dog his day.When all the world is old, lad,And all the trees are brown;And all the sport is stale, lad,And all the wheels run down;Creep home, and take your place there,The spent and maimed amoung:God grant you find one face there,You loved when all was young.
