In a spiritual sense, the origin of all things, and all created life, stems from God.

If we believe in God then, can we see a spiritual reason, or call it psychological if you like, for, and behind our procrastination? Where does procrastination arise from? How is it possible to arise? And considering that all things serve as in some way, when we realise that we are really a spiritual person, how does procrastination actually serve us?

Does procrastination stem from fear?

I was dreaming that I was a white man, in a community of black people. A sort of police force, or a body of ruling law enforcers, were going around, rounding up all white people to imprison, or to kill them. Some blacks disguise me in a black wig, and paint my face black, and one black lady gets a rock, and grinds it on my hip to break it, so as I will be disabled like a poor beggar, and so I will be overlooked, and not taken by these Gestapo like rulers.
