Kernel Of Corn

Such a great story..... :) I laughed at the ending.....Thank you for sharing! This brings to mind the many times when caught in fear and struggling to find grounding and balance, I would say to myself, 'all is ok. I am safe. I am at peace'.....and yet my body would continue to be stressed and my mind fearful and anxious. Although now during these uncertain and challenging times, I may still become overwhelmed, as I have practiced and aged I have learned the deeper truth of inner safety and inner security. I find that now when caught in upset and I remember these words, a feeling of peace and calmness arises. I also 'see' calm waters or a deeply rooted tree and feel settled and grounded. The intellectual knowing has become a deeper understanding that the fear may always be there but so too is the peace.
