Fear of abandonment

Fear of abandonment is the excuse the ego provides if you trust yourself, life and others. This fear pollutes our innocence and makes us slave to situations that bind us into the grip of the ego. We hold back the truth and the revelation of ourselves, our true expression of self. We live in fear that if we do, say or be the right thing it will cost us dearly and our security will be gone forever. It forces us to betray the honesty within ourselves that is essential to be real with ourselves and others; it eats away at the fabric of life and pollutes our communication with existence.
