She'll be back in shape in no time. We can't wait. For Christi, who has just lived through her surgical ordeal and for everyone who sees the future with apprehension, I offer this Litany Against Fear from Frank Herbert's SciFi masterpiece, Dune: "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." It helped me tremendously a couple years ago when I thought a depression would get the better of me, when after staring at the leaves swaying in the wind for months, I had to muster enough courage to look into a deep dark recessed corner of myself to heal or crumble. One does not die from such introspection but you inevitably return a changed person. We must not fear... Take your time and heal fully, Christi; do not fear. We're all here for you. Sylvain. |
