Decisions

Every action taken by human beings is based in love or fear, not simply those dealing with relationships. Decisions affecting business, industry, politics, relig­ion, the education of your young, the social agenda of your nations, the economic goals of your society, choices involving war, peace, attack, defense, aggres­sion, submission; determinations to covet or give away, to save or to share, to unite or to divide—every single free choice you ever undertake arises out of one of the only two possible thoughts there are: a thought of love or a thought of fear.

Fear is the energy which contracts, closes down, draws in, runs, hides, hoards, harms. Love is the energy which expands, opens up, sends out, stays, reveals, shares, heals.

Fear wraps our bodies in clothing, love allows us to stand naked.

Fear clings to and clutches all that we have, love gives all that we have away.

Fear holds close, love holds dear.

Fear grasps, love lets go. Fear rankles, love soothes.

Fear attacks, love amends.

Time Vs People

This question has been bugging me since a long of time. Do people change with time? Or is it that time changes people? They say, 'The only thing constant is change!' And yet this permanent fixture of our lives called change really unsettles us! If change is so constant, why are we so resistant to it?

The first job is everything for you to call it a career. A few months down the line, you are no longer content with even your job. What changed here?The time or the person?

The initial period of a relationship is rosy, so full of sweet nothings, thank you's and sorry's. That time your partner is everything you want. A few years into it, he/she is nothing even close to what you want. The words that earlier flowed effortlessly are gone. What changed here? The time or the person?

So dynamic is the nature of evrything. If everything is so volatile, then why is that some thoughts just keep running through the head. Why then, the state of mind is so constant?
