Fear can overwhelm us, cause us to
freeze, stop us from achieving our dreams, and so much
more. But, as detrimental as fear is, we still hold onto
it for dear life, afraid of what will happen if we let
go of the fear.
For many months now, I have allowed
my fear to win. I used the excuse that I was doing what
was best for me, being health conscious. But, in
reality, I was afraid.
I have been struggling with
gallbladder issues for more than 6 months, trying all
the natural methods of healing it. Intuitively, I knew
that it was not going to work, that my gallbladder had
completely quit working, but I continued to try any way.
And nothing worked.
Gallbladder flushes only achieved
making myself deathly ill, herbs had no effect. I have
been miserable, unable to digest food properly,
experiencing excruciating pain through my abdomen and
back. But, still, I tried to heal it myself.
I used self-hypnosis and other
techniques to keep the pain at bay. I thought I was
doing a great job of managing my dis-ease.
Until, my little dog collapsed and
was diagnosed with pancreatitis.
Our animals will many times take on
our dis-ease. They will develop the very health issues
that their owners have.
My little Gizmo took on my digestive
issues thinking he was helping me. He could have died
because of my stubbornness in overcoming my fear of
surgery. I could not allow that to happen, so I had
surgery last Friday.
Overcoming my fear of surgery has
been very freeing for me. I am determined to face my
fears head on in the future. I am excited about all the
wonderful things I will never again allow fear to
interfere with.
What fears are you holding on to? Are
you ready to let them go? It is better to let go of the
fears before you are forced to let go of them.
