Relational Allergies
When it comes to choosing people to walk closely with in life, I’m discovering I have an aversion to people of any color, shape and size who scapegoat people who are seeking sanity through becoming self-aware and therefore healing in the process.
I am currently experiencing an allergic reaction to people who continue to chose to be unaware of their true-authentic selves. Not to imperfect people, but to people who are perfectly content with inauthenticity. Perhaps I will gain an elevated tolerance level for these allergy triggers in time. But for now, it looks like allergy season is in full effect and I’m discovering what types of personalities I am allergic to in this current season of my own life.
It is essential for me to identify what types of people/relationships I am allergic to. I will then be able to tailor my daily dose of welcoming people, places and things into my life accordingly. Only identifying the individual allergens isn’t enough, just as working in a barn when I’ve learned I have hay fever isn’t fitting. I can expand my recovery-plan to include environments. Identifying environments that incubate dependencies on my allergy triggers’ environments will serve me well.
I cannot completely avoid interacting with all environments that house my allergic triggers without robbing myself of benefits also, but I can confine my interactions within these environments to be as minimal as possible. God, give me wisdom to know the difference.
Big picture. Small Picture. One Picture.
