For today, as it looks as if our stay-at-home can be with us for some time, we need to remember our beliefs, our foundations, our self-work. The Dali Lama has words to remind us.

Ecological Consciousness

And Fear. Let us not forget Fear. And let us also remember that Fear stands for False Evidence Appearing Real. Fear is of the future, and the future never arrives. Of course we’re not talking about that flight or fight generated by the fear of a present danger. We’re talking about that fear that comes from sit-and-think about what can go wrong. The “what-if.” There is no what if. There is only now. The only real enemy is us. Remember Pogo!
