I was tentative about going to church today, as I often am, since i’ve had trouble letting go of anger towards work. One touchstone of that anger at work, although it is not his fault, is a neighbour who joined my company as I left. He goes to my church.
When I see him, it triggers much anger, as it did this morning. I couldn’t listen to the sermon, and was seething with anger. But it’s not this person’s fault, but my response.
At the end of the service, I realized it wasn’t him at all, but a similar looking person! This confirmed my response is the problem. I have to add the workplace was toxic, and I was bullied.
How do others “let go” of their different pieces of baggage, so they don’t get weighed down? It has to be more than just “time”, since we all go through different stages of life....
