I was talking with someone that I admire very much and she told me that you act either out of Love or Fear.  Love cannot exist in fear and fear cannot exist in love. Hearing it woke me up a little.  Actually alot!  I started questioning my actions of late.  Was I acting out of fear or love?  To avoid the fear that I might be acting out of fear, my mind set to the task of proving her theory wrong.  Because if she was wrong, then the fault in her theory would allow me to be distracted from the real issue.  Luckily she was right, love and fear are not Yin and Yang, they are oil and water.  When you are acting out of love, there is no fear, when you act out of fear, there is no love.  They don’t like each other, not even a little bit.  Love is strong, fear is weak.  Love is the Hulk, fear is Dr. Banner.  Love is who you really are, fear is who you try to be.  Love is real, fear is fake.  Love is being a parent, fear is running from the responsibility.  For me, fear was working for somebody else, love is being a photographer.

Be loving not scared.
