10.8.15 Closer to those we love

When things are hard, how hard is it, to not be tempted to let someone close to us have it. 
As if distancing ourselves from them will let up the intensity of whatever difficult things we are experiencing or feeling. 
And yet , when we stay clear , own our impulses and reactions, to ourselves , to those around us, the reactive impulse to strike out settles. 
And then we are left, still with great difficult things , but closer to those we love.
