I must not fear

Written by Alain Herriott on . Posted in Thought for the Week.

“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.” —Frank Herbert, Dune

This was written quite a few years ago for the science fiction crowd.  It is fabulous.  If we change the second and third lines to “I will feel my fear”, and “…when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to feel its path”, we have the Wonder Method at its best.  Enjoy   ~Alain & Jody Herriott
