Good morning Joseth, good morning Roy.
What is it that you dislike so much about a person,
that you are willing to give up or risk everything? What is it that angers you
the most?
You could try to spend some time trying to find this
persons good qualities, but would it make you feel less angry? The chances are
you would still feel the same way about them, you would still be harbouring ill
feelings about them. As hard as you may try, it may get worse the more you think
about the person. If you are looking at the physical person and making
judgments, you will not change your feelings. What is it about this person that
you are responding to?
In creating the circumstances of your life, you draw
into your awareness, people and things that best facilitate what you want to
experience at the time. This person that you so much dislike is just such a
symbol. This person was drawn into your life for purpose. Consider what they
bring into your life, a gift, be it good or bad as you see it at the time. If
you recognize this first without making judgments, you can then move into the
position of discovering why you have brought them to you. What is it that you
want to experience? There are always commonalities between you, the people in
your life and the circumstances. Do not try to dismiss your feelings of anger.
They are appropriate albeit not the present situation.
This person is a physical manifestation of your
thought process, a symbol of what’s going on in your head at the time and most
recent history, now brought to the surface. What you are looking at is a mirror
version of your discarded self.
This person represents that part of you that you have
dismissed or buried long ago, that you dislike so much. They are now confronting
you, so that you have an opportunity to resolve any hidden issues you have with
yourself. You have another chance to reconcile yourself with the issues that
this person brings to you, because the time and place is best for change to
happen. It is a perfect time for self evaluation and forgiveness. Not for the
other person, but of yourself.
As you recognize the qualities in them that you don’t
like about yourself, you will be able to forgive yourself, and move forward into
a higher state of enlightenment. You will become aware that the person you feel
the most anger towards is yourself. Through the presence of this person in your
life you will gain insight into your nature, and at some point you will be able
to own and take responsibility for your discarded self. What you give away,
comes back to you. What you hold, you loose. If you do not own these feelings,
you will never be able to give them away. You cannot give something away that
you do not own.
As this awareness gives rise to enlightenment, this
alter ego will have less and less power over you and the anger will disappear.
As these people are drawn into your life, notice them.
They are opportunities. Look at the circumstances in your recent history and
draw a connection between the person and the circumstances. Notice your feelings
towards this person and remember that they represent a personal feeling you have
about yourself, that you have discarded. They are symbols, sent to help you. You
created them at the right time and place. They are actually angels, sent to you,
because you asked for them. Thank them and they will disappear. Fight them and
they will stay. The one that you are fighting symbolically is yourself. Know
this, and fall in love with yourself once again. Love all the parts of yourself,
the good, the bad and the ugly. And as these people are drawn into your life,
know that it is perfect that they do so, because you have created them. You do
not have to forgive them, but forgive yourself. Recognize the opportunity, not
the person.
