What’s Eating You?
It seems that you better NOT ask Paul Roslie, the Conservationist/snake expert. He was to be eaten alive on the Discovery Channel recently–thats
R-E-A-L-I-T-Y
TV in all Capital Letters, isn’t it.
My Personal F. E. A. R (F alse E xperience A ppearing R eal) is snakes. I have no idea why I
F E A R snakes. I’ve never been bitten by one; I’ve never had one snuck into my sleep bag at camp; I’ve never had one hid in my mailbox to spring out at me when I went for my Sports Illustrated or New Yorker;
But I will promise you if there’s a snake around. . .I won’t be.
Here’s the real kicker about Mr. Rosilie’s feat: IT DIDN’T HAPPEN.
As the huge Anaconda started to put his mouth around Paul’s head and began to crush his arm, he panicked and called it off.
He was saved by his team standing close by…saved after finding the anaconda in the Amazon. . .saved after donning a special protective suit. . .saved after bathing himself in pigs blood to attract the snake and be consumed and regurgitated all for The Discovery Channel’s viewers pleasure.
And it didn’t happen. . .
And, here’s the best part–people were furious. . .they felt cheated and duped.
Of course it made tons of headlines and PETA immediately condemned the act, even though Mr. Rosilie insists that the whole stunt was staged to draw attention to preserving the Amazon.
I’ll ask you again,
WHAT’S EATING YOU?
What Wraps it’s mouth around your head and crushes you to in F.E.A.R. frantically call out to be saved,
D E L I V E R E D?
Most of the time, it’ll have nothing to do with what slinks heavily underneath of the surface.
No, no most of the time what F.E.A.R.s us doesn’t hide at all–it’s out there in plain sight for all to see and for us not to be able to blink away.
Haven’t you noticed?
It’s Munched away The Best of You already.
Go ahead…call out
See who comes running
. . .away. . . .
Real FEAR never hurts you. . .it’s always the F.E.A.R of Fear
