We all have strong protective edges. They help us forge on, against friction in life. When challenges arise, or things get difficult, the edges come out of our psychological sheaths, to cut through the resistance. On the other hand, when they become locked behind their bay doors, unable to engage, we struggle with adversity and troubled times.
Conflicted personal, or emotional relationships can weaken our native edge resources and their strength. What was once our innate strength as human beings, to rise above, fight back, and never give up, gets lost and muddled when emotional conflict moves in to the neighborhood. Emotion, is the one area that needs its own health, independent of all others, in order to support all the rest of our survival systems. Gain the edges, and you rise to challenges. Lose the edges, and you lose your power.
