faith and fear...

there is maybe no greater opposites that faith and fear. Day by day the world unfolds before us. It was once suggested to me after an encounter where I was fervently expressing my position in life by suggesting that it was a result of the actions of others that I was in my current situation. That suggestion was for me to consider that perhaps, just perhaps, it was my reaction to situations in my life that had sent me down the paths that I had taken.

As I sat enveloped in thought that morning, I wreathed in every course of my being as to whether or not this was true. To this day, I see the absolute truth in that piece of wisdom. From that day, I see that "the truth is". The truth is that my perception is and will always be the driving force in any course of action that I take. The truth is that my reaction is solely based on my perception, be it held in faith or fear, it will be that perception that guides me.

Comes now the choice of the two...
