		<description>Dragos, this is very interesting.  I do something similar.  I am the stillness in the background and I simply observe the activity in the foreground.  It&#039;s incredible, but I&#039;m not that good at it yet and I don&#039;t do it enough.  When I am able to master it, I think I will have a very powerful tool in my toolbox.  Excellent job!

		<description>I feel consider who said what and why it was said. Often people say things when they are stressed or mad at them self. It is not intentionally said to hurt me but it is because I was there at the time.

If we interrupt something wrong and think it is said to be an insult or that we are unloved that is stupid.How we project with all possible motives thought out is a process of considering the source. 
Who - possible reason- and is it worthy of a reply. If it is a love one, space then hugs and laughter.Someone else, I would raise an eyebrow and then laugh. 

I refuse to walk on eggshells in order to avoid an argument but in order to refrain from arguing people both need to be relaxed and ready to talk. I am not saying run away from one never walk out on one but mutually take 5,10,20 minutes and cool off.

		<description>Being honest with you (and with myself) I avoid issues until I can&#039;t. Once I am in a place where I have to respond, I over do it. To the point of hurting myself, who cares. When I am at that point where a reaction is required I only want to see the body cooling on the ground. If I hurt myself in the process, it just does not matter to me. A lot of people have said that I put too much into winning, and that is probably right. But winning for me is usually measured by someone else losing.
Not that I recommend this way for others, but I know that I do it.

		<description>Welcome here, Jan and thanks for the nice words. Sometimes my writing can be challenging, that&#039;s for sure. And that&#039;s because I&#039;m putting myself in a lot of challenging contexts :-))</description>

		<description>That&#039;s very interesting, d1d0, especially the last part of your comment. I understand that self-esteem is one of the core energies involved in creating your personal gravity. And I think you&#039;re right. The weaker your self-esteem the lower the gravity, making it easy for all sort of floating garbage to land on your planet.</description>

		<description>Dragos,
I am finding your &#039;Balls of Fire&quot; post really helpful!  I love the idea that I am my own planet and no-one can dump their junk their without my permission.  I love that I can make anger directed at me, simply disappear.  I am slowly reading all your articles and finding it all very challenging and life affirming.  
Thank you Dragos,
Jan</description>

		<description>Dealing with aggression is an art in itself and I really appreciate your thoughts shared on this. There is a lot to gain by not giving into reaction - and maintaining the harmony inside and outside.
