What is Your Edge?

We all have them, that place where we just feel stuck, as if we have run into a stone wall. For me, I would usually bash into the wall trying to break it down! Never realizing there might be a door somewhere, a key to that locked place. There have been times where my edge is a person. Something about them or how we interact causes me to freeze up, tighten up. The “edge” is not the same for everyone, but we all have them, absolutely. What has been enormously helpful lately is being able to let go of the need to bash my way through the wall or run from the difficult relationship. I am finding a softer place, a place of seeing my “edge” as an opportunity to become more human with some humor! I am becoming lighter, less intense, more playful with all of this. Really, in the end, what happens? We leave this physical life and return to where we came from. I would rather spend my time here facing my “edge” with a little bit of laughter at how once again I have realized I am not perfect, I have my challenges, and I am really ok. With all of it.
“Today I will face my “edge” with compassion and humor for myself, knowing that by softening my attitude I will find the key to the door of that wall, the path to healing with difficult people.”
