How do I deal with irritating people?

Hello Sheri,

I would like your advice on how to deal with people towards whom you feeling loathing and irritation. I know such feelings are a dreadful waste of personal energy but how
do you conquer them and what happens if these feelings are caused by a particular person and avoidance is not an option?

Thank you!

Dear Friend,

First of all - no person deserves your loathing, projection of fear-based energy and judgment. If you stop your judgment of them you will not longer have those emotions. The way the human body works is like this: perception, judgment, emotional reaction. You cannot have an emotional reaction unless you see something and judge it first. Your peace and centeredness depends on you learning to deal with your judgment. Everyone is entitled to live their life as they choose even if they are not necessarily kind. Action-reaction will take care of them in time. You however - are not in the position to judge and neither am I or anyone for that matter. So rather than looking outward - how about if humanity on a whole starts looking inward and begins to take responsibility for the way they think and behave? The only thinking and behavior you can change is your own - so that if where you must start - not with others. All people are divine beings and when you start treating others like they are divine you might be surprised what comes back to you. However - if you hold judgment towards others they will feel your energy and be defensive towards you. When you stop projecting anger out towards other you make the space for something else to happen. Forgiveness is the key.
Love, Sheri
