I thought I heard Matrika (1:322/739) say:
->>Well I can't say that lately. (About people don't seem to be quite so
->>difficult to deal with with Al-Anon and the Program - whatever program)
->>Lately I find myself detaching from lots of people - I'm just plain fed
->>up with a lot of games - but I am NOT doing it with detachment. I am
->>coming from a very VERY harsh place. (Lots of anger coming out for
->>some reason)
odd...last Friday's alanon meeting was on detachment...and so many people
shared that before they were able to detach with love (or even neutratity ;-)
at first the only way they COULD detach was with anger...so perhaps you
aren't alone.
->>Whatever is going on, I hope I get it out of my system soon. I think I
->>will be able to tell that I have done so when I stop gritting my teeth
->>as I say "But for the Grace of God". (Grin)
I'll share what I shared that nite at the meeting...the thing that BEST helps
me to release the anger...or to...let it be transmuted from rage to
compassion (because I can't hold both in my mind at the same time...they seem
to be mutually exclusive) is to be willing to ask
godasidon'tunderstandhim/her/it to let me see the individual or situation as
he sees it...
that's worked for me, when nothing else seems to have.
