A good friend of mine used to be very vengeful. In her wrath, whoever played her badly got some really nasty feedback from her and happened to become sick/depressed/financially challenged etc.
Eventually, she realized that both it is not her "task" to punish, and that she was impeding herself with this "vengeance" aspect of her, and second that we need to respect the free will of all others, even when they choose to use that will to what we consider their own detriment. Now she is using her powers in a more balanced way, and is much happier because of it.
You can't lock this part of yourself away. You even need to "let it out" for a spin occasionally (or it WILL break out forcefully at some point, doing much more damage than you like) and learn to accept it as "you", and find ways to channel its energy in ways you consider acceptable. Yet, these definitions of what you consider "acceptable" are again the limits you impose on yourself.
Let me know if this helps you, I'm trying to sense my way into your perception of your "challenges". |
No, sorry. Neither you, or your friend, or
anyone has the power to impose anything at all, especially to their detriment on anyone. You are liviing in a fantasy world when you think that you or your "darkworker " friends can bring harm to those of us who don't invite you in.
I've seen the movie
The Shadow Effect., I understand embracing the dark side of ourselves. But please don't give this power to anyone else. They don't have it, they never have and they never will. It is our own, We have it and we have the ability to release it.
