FEELINGS:

Feelings of hurt or anger can be some of the most difficult to face.
We can feel so vulnerable, frightened, and powerless when these
feelings appear.

Sometimes, to gain a sense of control, we may punish the people
around us, whether they are people we blame for these feelings or
innocent bystanders. We may try to "get even," or we may
manipulate behind people's backs to gain a sense of power over the
situation.

Feeling hurt does not have to be so frightening. We do not have to
work so hard to avoid it. While hurt feelings aren't as much fun as
feeling happy, they are, still, just feelings.

We can surrender to them, feel them, and go on. Emotional pain
does not have to devastate us. We can sit still, feel the pain, figure
out if there's something we need to do to take care of ourselves,
and then go on with our life.

We do not have to act in haste; we do not have to punish others to
get control over our feelings. We can begin sharing our hurt
feelings with others. That brings relief and often healing to them
and to us.

Eventually, we learn the lesson that real power comes from
allowing ourselves to be vulnerable enough to feel hurt. Real power
comes from knowing we can take care of ourselves, even when we
feel emotional pain. Real power comes when we stop holding others
responsible for our pain, and we take responsibility for all our
feelings.
