108. I depend

When I am in the mind,
I depend on doubt and fear.
When I am in the vital,
I depend on aggression and regression.
When I am in the body,
I depend on hopelessness and helplessness.
When I am in the heart,
I depend on insecurity and uncertainty.
When I am in the soul,
I depend on love and joy.
When I am in God,
I depend on His Forgiveness and Assurance.
