If...

Taken from Matt Tebbe's FB post this morning:

• If you're angry try sitting with the question, "what is the violation?"
• If you're sad try sitting with the question, "what is the loss?"
• If you're anxious/afraid try sitting with the question, "what is the threat?"

        **some notes i took from our clergy retreat last month

Added by me: I don't think it's that the feelings cannot be valid. If they are, sitting with them may be a good and helpful idea. If they're not... hopefully sitting with them will reveal such.
