In an unexpected feeling
a large wave of reacting emotion
I felt ‘coming on’ with velocity
crested but did not break.
In the midst of the feeling
my inner self said aloud,
“THIS is my lesson. THIS is my lesson.”
To stay awake in the face of quick angering,
to catch my reaction and choose another,
enabling a ‘aha’ so I could genuinely laugh at seeing it,
loving that I can regain my footing when I stumble,
control and have mastery over my feelings:
the gift of my manifesting life.
No matter how it started,
it turns into something better: my lesson.
