    These words are profoundly true. So many suffer from fear. What they need to do is let go and journey forward.

    Fascinating how the fear can be a powerful force that can either imprison or liberate the human spirit.
    When we face it, by understanding and embracing it, fear can actually become an opportunity for learning and growing spiritually. ❤

    Respect should ideally be rooted in love and understanding rather than fear. When respect is based on fear, it can create a negative and oppressive environment. Love, on the other hand, promotes empathy, compassion, and mutual understanding, which are essential for building healthy and harmonious relationships. By cultivating love and respect for one another, we can create a more inclusive and supportive society.

    I came back to this thread. To share a fast thought.
    I’m an old soul, and crave words on paper. 📝 while having a chaotic yesterday ~ my package makes it way to me 😂 I run for a coffee ☕️ to sit in this special moment, ritualistic in my own quirky way to cherish this moment …
    … before opening my package. 📦 what do I find first ~ the receipt 🧾
    A receipt written with the words ‘Sensual Love’ and beneath LoveSoak.
    Something tells me I’m going to cry.
    So before I dare open the book…he needs to know …
    ~ I NEED and WILL find a way, to somehow ~ get this author ✍🏻 to sign all 5 of them ~ in his own handwriting …
    … 🥹💘💞❤️❤️
    …. Encapsulated in thUS moment, time stops, I make it stop - I am feeling these words, and carefully, slowly, not rushing one sentence, nor word. I am on page 37 … “Turning denial into acceptance. Turning fear into love.”
    …. Nothing matters but this moment, and everything else will have to simply wait. I’m reading 📖 onto page 38 …

    I don’t need to be critical was such a beautiful Poem but doesn’t the fear of becoming the ocean the same thing as fear because he says it’s not about fear of entering the ocean is the fear of become in the ocean which logic says it’s the same thing maybe it’s me who do not understand

    • @WordsmithWisdom-ws9qy

      He describes the anxiety of leaving our comfort zone and taking risks. To choose to move forward and face your fears
      It is not about losing one’s identity ("fear of entering the ocean"); it is more about “becoming” part of something larger than life, divine, and beautiful("the fear of become the ocean").
      This poem is all about believing in ourselves and overcoming fear. We have to dare “becoming the ocean.”

      I really appreciate this kind of question that allows me to look for more information and question if what I thought was true. Actually this poem isn't by Gibran -- it's become attached to his name because it's similar to a lot of the poetry he did write, but its actual author appears to be "Osho," in whose book "Beyond Enlightenment" it can be found.

      Kahlil Gibran was a very religious poet and philosopher who used symbolism as a style in his projects, which led many people to ask the same question as you. But it has never been confirmed whether he was enlightened or not.
