Tantrums, Tirades and True Power
|
29 November 2011
True Power is maintaining your balance and equanimity in all situations. This can be especially challenging at times when people upon whom you are dependent or upon whose professional services you rely upon, behave in ways that are unacceptable.
We are living through times of great change. Many people are feeling stressed, fearful and uncertain about what the future may hold for them. Stress causes people to be irritable. The slightest mis-understanding can trigger an explosive emotional reaction in them, resulting in tantrums, tirades and threats against you which can feel highly unpleasant. A drama can be created if one falls into emotional reaction and / or retaliation also. It is giving away your true power.
In such circumstances it is important not to react. Allow what is to be. This enables you to respond in ways that are not harmful to you or the other person. You may need to set a boundary, remove yourself from that person’s presence or transfer your custom elsewhere.
The gifts of situations such as these are that they provide you with the opportunities to stand in your power, to maintain balance and peace when others are emotionally unbalanced.
Such events also remind us of the importance of compassion. Some people hold unhealed wounds within them. Hurt people invariably try to hurt people. They can only hurt you, if you allow them to do so.
In truth, the core essence of your Being is immune to hurt. The people whom we find challenging permit us to find out how aligned with are with our true nature and power. Bless them, thank them and then move on. True Power is creating harmony and peace in all areas of your life. Remove yourself if you can either physically or emotionally from those who bewail their fate, or who behave in ways that are harmful. They are not ready yet to claim their authentic power and light.
