Be present in each moment without fear of unknown from "summary" of Wisdom Of Insecurity by Alan W Watts
The constant craving for security is a universal affliction that plagues the minds of many individuals. This desire for certainty and predictability often leads to fear of the unknown, causing individuals to live in a constant state of anxiety and apprehension. However, in reality, the future is inherently uncertain, and no amount of planning or preparation can guarantee a sense of security. In order to break free from the shackles of fear and insecurity, one must learn to embrace the present moment without reservation. By fully immersing oneself in the here and now, one can let go of worries about the future and focus on experiencing life as it unfolds. This requires a shift in mindset, a conscious effort to let go of the need for control and certainty. When we learn to be present in each moment without fear of the unknown, we open ourselves up to the beauty and wonder of life. Instead of constantly worrying about what may or may not happen, we can choose to fully engage with the present moment and appreciate the richness of each experience. This allows us to live more fully and authentically, free from the constraints of fear and insecurity. By embracing the uncertainty of life and learning to be present in each moment, we can cultivate a sense of peace and inner calm. We can learn to trust in the inherent wisdom of the universe and let go of our need to constantly grasp for security. In doing so, we can find true freedom and liberation from the chains of fear and anxiety that bind us.
