Fear

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
— Frank Herbert

Sorrow

In this sad world of ours,
sorrow comes to all,

and it often comes with bitter agony.

Perfect relief is not possible,

except with time.

You cannot now believe
that you will ever feel better.

But this is not true.

You are sure to be happy again.

Knowing this,truly believing it,

will make you less miserable now.

I have had enough experience
to make this statement

— Abraham Lincoln
