The ego in the workplace tries to expel pain by projecting it on to others or suppressing and denying the emotion. But where is the pain really coming from? Pain is the result of unhealed wounds being reactivated in the present.
The ego is always running for cover, distracting itself from looking within, and avoiding feeling pain. However, it is the resistance that is causing the pain. Allowing yourself to face the center of the pain lodged in the heart will bring the release and relief you desire. Running from the pain is the whole cause of the ego insanity in the first place. Feeling it and forgiving yourself for all your self-deprecating descriptions will bring you freedom—your emancipation from the jail sentence you have given yourself. This is true exoneration and absolution. The Divine has already given it to you; it’s up to you to do the rest.
