Death will come when it has to. We don’t have to jump into the jaws of death, but just because a tiger killed somebody, we don’t have to be scared of every lizard that crosses our path.
Can we control fear? Fear is created by our own mind. It is in our hands to destroy the rascal. It is manufactured by our own thought factory that produces fearful thoughts. It is because we are feeding our mind with doubt and pessimism. It is time to change the raw material and feed our mind with courage, faith, and hope. If we choose to live boldly, using our intelligence, rather than our mind, we can overcome fear. Only one thing can dominate our life – fear or faith. We must make a choice!
How much ever the media may scream that Coronavirus is a global pandemic that is going to destroy the world, it can’t! Till mid-April, roughly 1,50,000 have died with signs of the virus. This is over a period of 5 months. These many people die every day on planet earth. The virus is not killing the world, but fear definitely is! It is for us to realize the truth, not just about COVID-19, but about fear. The pandemic will pass, but fear will last till we go to our grave. We may escape Coronavirus, but that is not a big challenge. Some other disaster may appear tomorrow, and we will fall prey to it if we are diseased with fear.
TAKEAWAYS
HAS FEAR DESTROYED THE WORLD?
Those who are diseased with fear are sure to be deceased by it. This is because fear is a killer! As it makes a False Expectation Appear Real, it causes us to start our journey towards the end. A lot of people around the world put up signboards outside their homes – “Beware of Dogs”. Instead, we should have huge signages in our life which remind us to “Beware of fear”. Remember, fear can destroy us.
Coronavirus will not kill us! Fear will!
