Whatever you resist you become. If you resist anger, you are always angry. If you resist sadness, you are always sad. If you resist suffering, you are always suffering. If you resist confusion,you are always confused. We think that we resist certain states because they are there, but actually they are there because we resist them. / Adyashanti
I think this is so true and wise. Often we think That by suppressing negative feelings we can control or get rid of them. It is exactly the opposite! The feelings them controls us and are influencing how we perceive and act in the world. Furthermore we make them stay since we are to afraid to let them come up and dissolve. So let it all just be and let it come out, it will give you peace and freedom from your past.
