This surprised me a lot. But it makes sense. My uncomfortable feelings this morning were so strange. I couldn’t figure them out and I’ve never felt this way before. Here’s what I wrote this morning.
3rd cup. coffee. So tired.
Dear Inner Teacher, I’m having trouble staying focussed on anything. Odd confusing thoughts and feelings. Can you help me?
Dear Jenny, you are picking up on the feelings of Republicans and others who believed Trump, but are now beginning to get how wrong they were. Very confusing and disturbing time for them. Lostness and anger. Hold on to the lovingkindness prayer. You will have the support of people all over the planet who are doing metta at this moment. Doing it for yourself is as important as doing it for all beings. Dear Jenny there are many of us around you and supporting you. We are sorry that it’s so hard for you to feel our presence. This is not your fault. It’s a consequence of your wounding. Keep going as you have been. Even just trying to change your thought is helping. But it might be better to find compassion for those who feel confused and lost and angry.
Thank You. Yes, of course feeling compassion for people who feel betrayed is a good thing.
