Some words of wisdom from Frank Herbert. |
|
"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." - The Bene Gesserit Litany Against Fear, from the Dune novels
***
Take a deep breath. Hug your family, friends, pets, or yourself if you're so inclined. Chill in a comfy chair with your warm beverage of choice.
A panicky, fearful populace is ripe for exploitation. Remember this--fear and hate are the only weapons the Republicans have left.
The sun's coming up soon, I promise. Nothing they do can stop it, only our own fear and panic paralyizing us into inertia can stop it. So pause for a minute, get yourself together. Take a time out.
Then get out there and handle your business, the best way you know how. I swear it will be okay, as long as we don't freak out.

3. Yeah, but that Honored Matre Sarah Palin is freaking me out! |

Frank Herbert rocks. (Well, the Dune novels rock. His other work, not as much.)
