Thank you, Megan, for that enlightening piece. I know it will sound weird, but weird describes me well actually, but I know your post was sent to me by my guides. Indeed, I’ve been struggling for the past 2 weeks with unfair treatments from 2 different organizations and have tried to find ways to respond rather than react and not letting my anger fill my days, obsessively imagining different retaliation ways. I’ve worked a lot on that issue for the past months and I’ve understood that what triggers my anger is the fear or the fact of not being heard and seen for who I am. But knowing doesn’t always help you find a solution. I haven’t been able to get rid of that fear yet...
I’ve instinctively tried your process and it works though it takes time and repetition to bypass the automatic obsessive anger fueled by the ego to find peace, still a work in progress. Setting boundaries is a very good argument as well but, unfortunately, though it feels good when you do it in a firm but respectful way, it doesn’t always grant you back with fairness or with being heard for what you have to say: as in everything in life, you’re in control of who you are not of the outcome. It is something you have to gracefully accept as well for fighting meaningless fight only brings exhaustion, sometimes you just need to let go.
Thank you for sharing your process, I really needed it right now. In my last response to one of the organizations, I set a boundary and told them what I was expecting of them as a solution to the issue, though a little aggressively I must admit, and they finally accepted to examine my request so it worked so far. I felt a little guilty about the aggressiveness but your post made me notice that I actually set a boundary and offered a way out so that’s not that bad. Lots of love.
Thank you so much for your response. Not weird at all that your guides sent you :) I appreciate your openness and vulnerability in your response. I don't know the ins and outs of the situations you have been facing - every situation is so unique and different. At the end of the day, we all have to do what we feel is best for us. For me, when I go through something where I am being treated unfairly - I've learned to hold no expectation of the "other" side. I try to focus solely on who I want to be in that situation, hold my ground by setting whatever boundary feels right for me, and let go of all of the potential responses. Your response is for you - it is not for the other person. At least, that's how I see it and how I move through tough circumstances. My way isn't everyone's way. It's just what works for me. I wish you nothing but the best as you navigate the relationships you speak of - it sounds like you are working through it beautifully even if it doesn't feel beautiful at the moment.
