Common Sense Verses Fear

Fear is created common sense is familiar Both interacting through Thought’s One gives peace the other causes confusion When confusion appears the mind loses peace While focusing on a solution to solve a problem If the fear makes sense then it becomes real If the fear makes no sense then you have peace Logic tells us not to go into a burning building This is common sense but, if another is in danger Then the fear becomes real, yet if the house is empty Your only fear is loss of replaceable items. How often do you think about death every day? The fear of death only arises when it’s close to you The more your mind calculates your death The more death becomes feared and you lose common sense EXAMPLE: Jan 6th 2021 a riot at the White House over politics Fear: 25,000 troops sent to protect the White House Result: Not one incident happened Fear: 5,000 troops stay until March to protect their fears Common sense became unrest and fearful thought’s Covid-19 95% of deaths caused by this virus are people over 50 That leaves all who are under 50 locked down why? Fear! Is this common sense or fear? If politicians have no common sense then why do we follow them like sheep?

Common sense doesn't seem very common in life, logic has been bestowed on us by God, let it be used. Great poem. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
