Event
Woke up feeling uneasy, which moved into irritability. So, I sat with my feelings and sensed first my physical reactions and then the surrounding energies. Having done that, I knew there was an undercurrent of some kind of disturbance that seems to swirl beyond me. A friend, who lives far away, confirmed the same in her area. So I spent some time outside doing chores and immediately felt much better. Also, I had a conversation with a friend in which we shared near identical interactions with people out in public - quite a bit of anger. My friend and I are pleasant people and are accustomed to having positive interactions with people, so we each were thrown for a loop.
My Take
I can sum up my personal experiences as reaction and understanding. The key to maintaining some kind of equilibrium is taking the time to understand how I am feeling. Many times the source of my feelings comes from beyond me, as I discovered this morning.
While these ideas are nothing new to most of us, I think they bear repeating because the undercurrent of disturbance is growing. We can see evidence in our own countries, and I think it will grow as more info about C-19 comes to light. For me, I can feel compassion for people acting out - to a point. However, I do keep a watchful eye out when on the road because there are weird drivers out there.
