Yeah, there is nothing impossible with use if we just believe. Believing just some kind of power we can have and hold. If we just believe then everything will be fine. Thanks for this very nice and inspiring blog.

Tom -- I liked your words, "Reflecting now, I see that our greater gift was not the medical savings but the gift of acting swiftly without needing to slow down and label experiences as something bad." I think it is really true that if we label something as bad, it becomes so. This is something we need to stop and think about, especially regarding our children. Thanks for a great post :~) Saras last blog post..More than just 5 words in a journal

Cath – In so many areas of our lives we need to focus on what’s working well. Traditional medicine unfortunately is set up to treat symptoms thus they look for them. I can see what you mean about your social medicine. We see some of that hear as well. Everyone tends to appreciate more when they reach into their own pockets to pay for something.

Chelsea – Welcome, it’s my pleasure to powerfully inspire.

“I like this about my upbringing. We didn’t have a lot of money so we couldn’t afford to label our maladies. We sneezed, but we didn’t know about allergies. As a result, we grew up allergy free.”

Tom – this is brilliant and so true. When I had PTSD, they focused on the problem, so they could give me a label. And in addition to focusing on that problem – which I really wanted to forget, they also wanted to dig up every single shit thing that had happened to me since the age of two.

I didn’t begin to recover, until I stopped focusing on the shit and working towards the positive things that I wanted to happen.

By the way, I know your healthcare is expensive – but in many ways it’s more sensible than our system. I know folk who go to the doctor’s for the slightest thing because it’s free. My ex-mother in law has had virtually every single bit of her body x-rayed and scanned, because of imaginary illnesses.

Ricardo – Wise my man. Asking a tough question will always show us the way out of a rut.

Chris – That’s insightful. We are “all”-right! I agree, my God doesn’t judge either. So why wait for what’s not coming?

Kim – Welcome, good to see you here. Fearless living is a choice and I’m inspired that you’ve made it.

Tom,

I enjoyed reading the post. What a great read !!! I can truly relate to your post. I think it is so true. I can remember when I was little and playing at our neighbors. Well, I fell and had this hugh piece of glass in my leg. No, I did not go to the doctors. My father fixed me up! I am working on my fearless living once again as an adult. Thanks for your words of wisdom.

There are times in my life when I can say that I was fearless enough to assert what I want not minding the challenges or hurdles that come along the way. I think when you are fixed and focused, nothing can stop you from doing what you believe in.

Hi Tom -- I liked what you said about giving up on obsessing over what's wrong with us. What came up for me when I read that was that the easiest way for me to give that up is to stop thinking about any aspect of myself as "wrong." It's related to something I've been thinking about recently -- that maybe one aspect of maturity is giving up the idea that God is going to come and tell us we did a good or bad job, and becoming able to live with uncertainty.
