S is for Scared - PDF

Asking ourselves to HALT (when we're Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired) is a great tool. However, Rev. Ken Beldon says there's one state missing: Scared. Fear limits our ability to care and love. It doesn't have to. He quotes lessons from Jesus, Nietzsche, Buddhist teachers Tara Brach and Sylvia Boorstein, writer Andrew Sullivan, the TV show Breaking Bad, Pixar's film Finding Nemo, and Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
