Quote by Leigh Bardugo

“And you're not afraid...of the devil? Of his minions? "Fear men, Luzia," he said. "Fear their ambition and the crimes they commit in its service. But don't fear magic or what you may do with it.”

“Politics is action and all action is but a flaw in the perfection of inaction, which is peace, just as all being is but a flaw in the perfection of nonbeing. Which is God. For if God is perfection and the only perfection is in nonbeing, then God is nonbeing. Then God is nothing. Nothing can give no basis for the criticism of Thing in its thingness. Then where do you get anything to say? Then where do you get off?”

“Do You Want to Fear?” Many of you act as if fearing is not a choice, when in actuality you decide that you shall choose fear. And then you often claim the Dark did it to you, or the unknown made you fear. Or you claim that the scary alien or the devil himself or herself made you fear. You may say, “Cannot things hurt us?” Very well, yes. You may fall down a set of stairs. So you might as well watch where you are stepping and pay attention out of Love and care for yourself. But fear often simply shows up as a sign that something is hidden and in the dark. The moment that you, within your knowing of Oneness, is not scared of looking into the dark or hidden spaces, is the moment fear loses any kind of power over you. It then is being used as a power for you and through you.”

“Perhaps this all sounds too simple and happy-go-lucky. Well, snap out of it! No thing has dominion or power over you unless you give it that power. Stand your ground. Take three deep breaths. Be willing to see into what something truly is. Be willing to take the time and ask questions. Be willing to Play. This is what we are inviting you to do here. Imagine your new life of being free from all fear. Imagine a life where fear is being used as an empowerment through you. Yes. Own your power. Every moment. This is You! Make your choice.”

“Look at our previous example of the girl. Her life continued to get smaller and smaller as she allowed herself to believe the fear and choose a decreasing of choice, Light, and life. This was brought through the continual choice of agreement to fear. All of this is in choice. She never lost her choice. And no matter how far or small she got to experience herself, it was through continual choice. And a part of that choice was her agreeing to believe that she did not have choice. This is a beauty of the cycle or cyclone which the energy of fear is. When one believes that it must hand over its energy to fear, this energy is then used to reinforce and pull more energy into the experience itself until it can be blinding. But once again, at any moment, one may free oneself through the simple choice of Love and recognition of their Oneness.”
