Evil (ignorance) Is Like A Shadow-- It

People Are Often Very Frightened Of Their Anger. They Feel It Will Cause Them To Do Something Harmful. If You Have This Fear, Create A Safe Situation Where You Can Express Your Anger, Alone Or With A Trusted Therapist Or Friend. Allow Yourself To Talk Angrily, Shout, Hit Pillows, Whatever You Feel Like. Once You've Done This In A Safe Environment, You Will Have Released Some Of The Charge, And You Can Look Underneath The Anger To Find What You Need To Do To Take Better Care Of Yourself. Like Any Emotion, Anger Is A Valuable Tool, Teaching Us Who We Are And How We Feel.

Very Seldom Do We Receive Any Support For Trusting Ourselves, Listening To Our Own Sense Of Inner Truth, And Expressing Ourselves In A Direct And Honest Way.

The Mind Is The Enemy Of Intuition, According To Many New Age Adherents, But I Don't Buy That. I Look At Everything In Terms Of Polarities - Two Ends Of The Same Continuum. Young/old, Male/female, Individuality/conformity, Work/play, Freedom/constraint, Right/left, Day/night, Life/death, Rational/emotional, And So On.

We Shouldn't Ignore Any Guidance That Comes From The Mind - We Should Listen To Our Minds And Balance Mental Messages With Intuitive Messages. We Need Both To Navigate Our Way Through Life.

Eventually I Lost Interest In Trying To Control My Life, To Make Things Happen In A Way That I Thought I Wanted Them To Be. I Began To Practice Surrendering To The Universe And Finding Out What "it" Wanted Me To Do.
