Each of us has to deal with this emotion today. It’s around us a lot — so much so that we tend to take it for granted. This wordtoon reminds us that it’s important to realize how much it affects our thinking and emotions. It’s a highly negative showing up daily in our news, TV shows and entertainment. Even pop music occasionally reminds me of the painting “Scream” Fear’s opposite is LOVE. We need more of this in our lives. Can you consider a media “fast” in your life to limit your exposure to FEAR?

Comfort Zone
It’s natural to want to be comfortable in life. And the desire to want something new is natural. Realize that you may also want to create change for yourself to perk up your life!
Change is Opportunity
As the saying goes: Change is the only constant. When it disrupts our life, we likely see it as a negative interruption. It’s not welcome! Even if our present life isn’t feeling particularly good, We don’t want change. Now, try seeing it opportunity time — a time to be creative. Something new can happen. What? That’s what you look for.
Hula
The letters are shaped to do the dance. Doodled hands complete the expression. Notice one leg of the A is shortened to fit into the L. Aloha!
Change
History tells us this has ever been true, also for each of us. While change can be experienced as chaotic and painful, we can also perceive it as opportunity for new ideas. How can you benefit from change?
Now
This word talks about our focusing attention on each moment that is the present. Worrying about the future or anguishing about the past robs us of the present and all its possibilities for full living. Practice being fully in your moments.
Complex
This is a complement to FASTER. The rapid expansion of stuff we need to take care of each day commands our attention and robs us of our inner peace. Let’s find ways to simplify. Do we really need all those things?
Frolic
Find yourself some frolic time today. Be the frolic!
Smile
Give yourself some smiles as well as others. Smiling feels good to you the giver as well as to the receiver. Try it out on yourself and feel it.
