Mrs. Müller

Mrs. Müller was sitting in her regular café on the market square one morning, sipping her coffee. Like every morning, she read the newspaper and, like every morning, she started with the headline. But in the place that usually contained the latest scary news about the new deadly virus, she read it in bold letters:

WHAT IF.....

And Mrs. Müller began to read.

"What if I had a product that I would like to sell. What if I paid people a lot of money to sell my product by whatever means. What if I could get people to buy my product because they fear for their lives? What if I lost all my scruples because of my greed for money and didn't even stop at innocent children? What if I stopped thinking clearly out of sheer fear? What if I completely relinquished my personal responsibility and blindly trusted?

What if there was no advertising. What if there were no media. What if there was no corruption. What if at some point I started to think for myself, to question and to form my own opinion, regardless of whether I would then no longer go along with the crowd? What if I stopped letting fear control me and started to trust? What if I finally realized that paper is patient? And what if I finally learned from history and understood how manipulation, propaganda and brainwashing work?

Trust, look, WHO!

Fear will not save your life, fear will make you a prisoner. Fear will divide society, not bring it together. Fear is the greatest poison you can let into your life. And fear will prevent you from truly living your life.

What would you do if you were NOT afraid? What would you do if you TRUSTED? Trust in life, in YOU, in your intuition, not in empty and hollow words from others. How would you decide? That is the only question you should ask yourself. What DO you DO when you are not afraid? How do you DECIDE when you are not afraid?

Once you have learned to live without fear, only then do you know what life really means. Carpe diem."

Mrs. Müller sat there. Started to think. Asked herself what SHE was afraid of. And remembered how it all began.

Would you like to know what happens next with Mrs. Müller? Then please leave me a like or a comment.

Sincerely

Ilvy
