It is astonishing how quickly fear turns into violence. It certainly leads to physical violence, but it can be as subtle as waiting for the other person to finish without listening, because you have something to say. It can be impatience. It can be rigidity.
I am on a lesson in my Kum Nye practice which is seemingly pulling the worst out of me. I have been unable to refrain from arguing on the internet. To my credit, I am persisting in it, despite the ugliness it is pulling up, because I believe there will be an end to it, and this is the only way; at the same time, I am watching all the ways fear deranges me.
