GOD!!!!

I was so angry!

Meditation, journaling, reading, exercising would help, but one little trigger and anger! Again!

Anger and I became really good friends. I explored it; I raged in it; I wore it like a badge of honor; I fell on the floor kicking and screaming in tantrums because of it. Anger showed me where my boundaries were being crossed. Anger helped me to stop playing a victim and stand up for myself. Anger began healing my 3rd chakra. Just as I thought I had a hold on it, put a box around it, bottled it up, anger would come shooting back out like a volcano just waiting to erupt! It was a friend I was starting to resent. It was the type of friend who asked if they could stay a few days on the couch, and end up staying for months. Anger was not a pleasant house guest. Anger never washed its dishes and always left clothes and food all over the floor. Just like with any unwelcome and unpleasant house guest, I learned something about myself in the process. Anger gave me gifts that, at the time, I didn’t think I wanted.

In the midst of all this anger, I held meditation group meetings once a month at my house. One day, as soon as the meditation started, my guide showed up so clear. I asked my guide, almost demanded, what was the meaning of all this anger I had and how do I get past it? How can I let it go? How did my guide let it go?

The message I received that day was a message I’m still unpacking, using, grateful for, love, and think it will be relevant throughout my entire life.

My guide showed me that anger was just an emotion that we, as humans, get to experience. Emotions flow. Break it down and emotions are Energy in Motion. Emotions come up and we choose to hold onto them or let them go. He showed me that emotions can be likened to a note on the piano. One note represents anger, another joy, another sadness. We can choose to keep playing the same note over and over and over again like I was doing with anger. The alternative is we can allow the next note to play and then the next. All of the emotions we feel flow into the next emotion which eventually creates the most beautiful song.

That song is the representation of your life!
