"Everything that irritates us about others
can lead to us to an understanding of ourselves."
C.G.Jung
The world ... physical, emotional, and spiritual ... communicates with us daily, but too frequently we are not listening. If there were a knocker on every door of opportunity, we would be driven crazy by the pounding. If we would merely consider broader possibilities, we just might be overwhelmed.
As human beings, we simply tune out. We yearn for answers, we beg for insights and we wait for our preconceived responses. When answers are not dressed as we want them to be, we miss the very guidance we seek.
Watch how a couple interacts and notice a resentment building inside our selves. How does the scene apply to us? Specifically, what is causing our emotions to stir? Does this mini scene reflect rude conversation, control issues or disrespect? Once identified, the trigger helps us to understand what irritates our lovely selves and our own relationships.
