Did I say No Fear?

It has been a while since I've last written here. I've grown some since then. I still hold to what I've said... except for one thing. I said, "Bliss is a state in which one feels connected to one's true sense of Self, which is authentic, simultaneously grounded & high, clear from hurt, resentment and fear and at One with everything." I take back the part about being clear from hurt, resentment and fear.
As long as I am on this planet, I am here as a spiritual being having a human experience. My desire is to continue to grow into my greatest potential until I take my very last breath. To do this, I must play in this world as fully as I can. Play requires risk, going into the unknown, being willing to get hurt, make mistakes and be messy. Fear is a natural emotion that comes up in play, and it is a guide that tells us to fight & conquer or flee. As I accomplish more in my life, the risks get larger, and my fear seems greater. I have learned that I don't have to be clear from hurt, resentment and fear. I just need to embrace them, which means acceptance. Which takes me back to Bliss. But I have to say, I am not even looking for it. I am just happy to be exactly where I am... most of the time.
