PERHAPS THE ANSWER
11 October 2007

Perhaps the answer
to the question
of fearing
not fearing
is to question
its validity
and more so
its necessity
and even its protection
but I do
and I don’t
know
the answers
only (I think) – or at least, mainly
because I don’t know
the minds
of past and potential
intruders
so I question
the questions
and I continue
to fear
not fearing.

Perhaps the answer
is to find another question
or perhaps the answer
is to fear
fearing.

A fascinating photo of how your mind works - the constant to and fro, weighing the matter. I love the metaphysical and I really respect this series and how you are tackling the question.

with smiles
and words
and thoughts
of support

Dear Diana, your conclusion is powerful, insofar the last words are the secret formula to peace ... in fearing fearing, you recognize its true potential and avoid allowing it to manifest.

Though I know of this too, I do still struggle sometimes ... and I should have learned from my Mom, who lived fearless, always with open doors and total trust in her Angel's protection (while I trembled in the dark, but well I did not fear the burglars actually then, I feared ... THE GHOSTS!!

and that is quite another story!).

Anyhow, dear Diana, I wish you to feel SAFE.
Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your mind.

Love and hugs.
Margherita

Thanks, kin, for appreciating and enjoying how my mind works and for the caring support.

Thanks, Margherita, also for the same and for letting me see how you feel about these things. It is very interesting to hear about other people's backgrounds and thoughts. Do you have any poems about the ghosts?

Hugs to you both
