Upset? Why?
Why are you upset?
Well, as a highly sensitive person (HSP) and empath, I just learned today that, “You are only upset about someone else’s disturbance when you CONNECT with the negative Energy of their experience”! ❤️🦋🌀
It seems simple.
It seems I have heard something like that before. Or that at my age, I should have known that. Hmmm. I will meditate on that statement (sit with it) for a few days, and then update this post.
UPDATE: Be the change I wish to see in the world. Healing. Healed. Yes, I desire peace. And that’s why it is important for me to heal my wounds, past traumas, and triggers.
Would you like to share what you think this statement means?
“You are only upset about someone else’s disturbance when you CONNECT with the negative Energy of their experience.”

Choice
I know why I’m upset if someone does or says something TO me, and I know it’s my choice as to how I react. Some people laugh stuff off, but not me. I take stuff seriously. Ugh!
I know it’s my choice about how I react to external situations, but sometimes the emotions overwhelm me to the point that my logic doesn’t work. I use EFT to calm myself during those times, but I would prefer to feel less upset, especially when whatever the situation is has NOTHING to do with me!

Until today, I couldn’t figure out why I let other people’s negative experiences bother me. When someone is sad or hurting, I empathize.
Why choice? It’s human nature to struggle for our independence. Even my twin granddaughters (who love each other very much), fuss and fight because each wants to live an independent life.
Why today?
I listened to Alania Starhawk’s lunchtime Facebook Live message and the statement in the image above just dropped into my mind!
Yes, whatever triggers a negative emotion in me, was already IN me! And at the moment of sensing the trigger, I have the ability to become conscious. When I am consciously aware, I can choose to soothe the past trauma or wound and make a better choice!
I’ve got this! And so do you.

Many blessings to you in ALL ways.

A powerful realization. Spirit tells me that we only become upset when we have attachment to how we believe something “should be”. We’re disappointed that all is not some other way. This is how I read your a-ha insight!! 💛 Thank you for all of your bright support!! I’m so glad that you feel the power of all that is shared.
