Stress: Are You Coping or Failing?
There is a clear relationship between stress and
diseases of mind, body and soul.
Personal experience alone can reveal the truth of this
fact. One of two things happens when you react to stress. If you are an
outgoing, aggressive type, strong in intellect or physique, your emotions will
evolve you into a fiendish beast. You will lose your humanity and you will,
through guilt, become addicted to hurting others. You will hate what you are
becoming but you will somehow blame others for what is happening to you. You
will have contempt for their weakness. Because it is really resentment, this
contempt turns the wheels of evolution, the cycle of life and death and adds
conflict to what you are becoming.
Fear of what harm you might commit can make you timid.
So, even though you may be a strapping big person, you might shrink from a
fight; while small people, taking advantage of your false gentleness, make you
mad again.
The state of fear is just as much a failing as is the state of violence
Lose to pressure, chances are you will react as a loser
all your life and keep on losing. Pressed too hard, your role can change but
you no more find contentment in the bully role than in the cowardly one.
The kind of confidence you seem to recover in your
fantasies does not hold up under pressure.
Your pre-planned conversations and schemes collapse
and your resentments drive you deeper into that psychotic mental retreat.
The feeling of relief is the reason we live in our
dream state. Imagination is a refuge from the guilt of our failing. When we
cannot prevail in life, we dominate, judge and will our way through fantasies.
The weaker we are, the more we knuckle under to stress
and give power to the wicked. The wicked hate you for your weakness and the
weak hate you for your wickedness and you all make each other what you are. All
this evolves into intolerable violence in our homes and eventually to holocausts
among nations.
