When I went swimming with my grandma today, Three things happened:
1. During swimming.
When I was swimming a large strong guy was swimming beside me. And I was afraid to have any physical contact with them. In fact, in a public pool. We should always try to avoid bumping into one another. The dead guy seems to be in that pool is his and swim whatever he wants.. I was quite put off and angry and defensive about guys like that. Physically, guys are stronger than woman. So in the pool, another gentleman you should always be avoiding contact with the lady, especially in public pool. He is not concerned about anyone else, which is very selfish. I previously had an open argument about that. Although there was no physical contact, I had to stop to avoid contact with him. And I simply stood up and when he came towards me, I told him that he should be careful. Otherwise he would hit me. And he is a strong black man. And if we hit the one who injured more would be me. So I asked him to be more cautious about other swimmer. He was very annoyed by my warning. So I insist on mine position that he should be careful because he keeps hitting me Head to head ( A few times. We almost hit).
This is very selfish behavior. And I hate guys like this. I feel like they are using their physical advantage to Take advantage of Anyone else. I would react defensively, in this situation, because I feel like I have to shout and fight and show that I am aggressive to avoid getting hurt. I am being defensive to protect myself.
Is there a better way? I could have changed the lane and just ignore that person, but there's not always much space and room in the public pool.
I could think about the truth. And the truth is the guy appeared because life is teaching me a lesson. I have sealed power in the situation - there is a treasure in this situation With my power inside. That's why I feel discomfort. What I need to do instead is to feel the discomfort to observe it, feel it, And tell myself the truth- This is Illusionary. The world that I live in is all illusion. When I reclaim my power (my power of infinite bless) , this guy will not appear again. When I remind myself of the truth, that's no one can really hurt me in my world, the world i've created around me, the people that I meet, the things I have. The only thing that could hurt me is created in my own mind. It's the imagination that created in my mind that I am in danger that I need to protect myself. But I don't I always say in my own world because I am the co creator. Now I feel the power coming back to me from that guy who remind me that I have sealed power outside. Now I Reclaim my power and I feel the power flowing to me. That's my power, my original power That I have forgotten about. .
And I live the truth from now on with my power.
2. After swimming.
I saw a few filipino maids and they were chatting, having fun at the changing room. When I went into the shower, I saw a lot of hair on the floor. If those hair went into the drain, . It will cause bad small and potential blockage that would need the swimming pool and clubhouse to spend a fortune in changing the drain or hiring people to clean the drain. My grandma was angry about the lack of hygiene of the filipino maids and ask them to clean the hair. The filipino maids pretend not to understand Chinese. And so I repeat the request in English asking them to clear their own mess. The clubhouse and swimming pool is a public area. And so everyone should have the responsibility to keep it clean.. It is the basic manner. Fortunately, one of the maids came over and clear the hair.
It reminds me that each of us should bear our responsibility towards the public. Otherwise the world would be a mess if everyone just consider their own convenience.
Anger comes when someone else is not doing what we expect them to do.
We could be asking a child or parents to eat more healthy food out of good benefits to their bodies. But if they don't want it, We can get angry. You can stay or not doing what we want them to do, even though it is their own body and their own mouth. And they get to decide what they want to eat.
There is an innate want and desire to control.
The truth is everyone has their own separate subject matter to deal with in this life. Everyone has their own power hidden in different scenario and situations. We should focus on our own journey to reclaim our power and live in the truth rather than focusing on others journey to reclaim their power. Sometimes to be hard to control her emotion when we see others doing things that or not in the way we want.
What we need to do in that situation is observe judge to observe our reaction towords the behavior that arouse our emotions. Don't judge, don't involvr our brain in it, simply feel the discomfort. Tell ourselves the truth That we Reclaim our power in this treasure egg. once we claim our power in the situation behavior will disappear automatically. We don't need to fight against it or do anything about it. It is just a situation that hides our power and the discomfort and anger is the reminder that there is power here for us to reclaim.
