From Unshakable Faith by Swami Ramdas
"Give up all your fears, all anxieties, all doubts, all thoughts of weakness."
Rt. hand
65 1/2 today and I am permeated with fears, doubts and weaknesses.
Walking like a hesitant and crimped 90 year old, with unpredictable energy levels, I seek contentment and comfort.
Meanwhile,
RESPONSIBILITY looms, and I want to play... in my work... in my studio... in my dreams.
Yet I fear this pain that erupts and takes me to bed, keeps me awake at night, erodes my confidents. Hurts. - Rights
