I couldn't agree with you more.
Some people that I have found in my workaday world seem to enjoy the highs and lows in life perhaps more than I find comfortable.
It is almost an adrenaline rush for them.
I call it simply energy siphoning...
Here's a little glitch in the get a longs of life. It is Quatum Physics kind of stuff...yet quite simplistic as well...we are all only 3% solid matter. The rest of our human form is energy.
We are a walking, talking, energy machine. We also send out energy, as well as draw it into ourselves...
(I am an energetic healing bodyworker...see my profile for web site)
I thus believe that when one is filled with negative energy, they feel weak and lifeless.
When they generate the anger emotion to a force field large enough to erupt the emotional field of the one they are in supposed mental/physical battle with...
The escaping energy outbursts of returned anger; allows the original perpretator to capture the energy of the oen that allowed their buttons to be pushed.
So then the anger person becomes happy inside for having won the battle, and have the other's energy to prove it.
The solution to how to stop the energy stealers, as I see it?
Don't allow others to push your button, unless of course it is life threatening...then kick their hiney!
Don't believe me? Just think about those times that you were having a grand and miracle filled day, and along comes this grey and life less soul, just a itching to "make you, their day," and that wonderful and joy filled day; turns into a very rough and rotten day due to what you allowed that other to "check mate you," with? You go away feeling down casted, life less...until you are over the experience and able to come back into balance.
On the other side of the coin, are those that actually like the challenge of battle and sometimes go there for that is also exciting for them...for they are always the victims...
As Dr. Phil states, "we allow others to treat us the way we allow them," or something similar...
Or like I always told my sons when they were a growing up, "can't do the time, don't do the crime."
I believe we get what we give...
So you are absolutely right as well, "Sooner or later these types will stop-no fun." For the fun of draining our energy, will not in place...
They go on to find others that they can push their buttons.
Those are my thoughts on all choas seekers...
For in my observance of them, I find that most tend to also be quite the razor edge kind of walkers on this planet...
The ones that I have discovered, simme to take large risks, even though past choices were discovered to be quite silly to them...they still tend to be caught up in "Ground Hog Day," syndrome, that being of a chasing their tails, only to get the same results...over and over again.
My mother called these types, "coconut heads."
They just don't get it...
I also know why they seem to be life less, with no energy of their own; they are of the victim mentality: everybody is out to get them, so they stay up all night, figuring out ways to get them before they get them...wow, what a phenonmenal waste of precious time.
Nine times out of ten, the perpretator moved on from yesterday's moment and into another energy stealing moment...not even a looking back...for he/she had gotten what they were a looking for...
Yet, I understand that there are all kinds of people in the world...learning to live with all the differences I feel should be man-kind's foremost priority. Yet that isn't the case. Yet I realize that one always fears that which they don't understand.
Dealing with the irrational...is always a difficult moment...The thought I try to hold solid in my mind, is; "what would Jesus do were He in my shoes?" Stand and fight back, or take; exit stage left?
For I believe we are the creators of our own show...
I strive to make mine good, so I fill my life with special friends and family...for they help me through those rough moments, I would rather forget.
Know what I mean?
My life is so full, I don't have the time to make trouble to another...for I know that when I leave this planet...I and myself alone will have to stand before my Maker and explain each and every transgression I had ever chosen to make with; "what were you thinking?"
Keeping my act together is a 7/24 hour job.
On the matter of property becoming damaged and such, get the qualified experts to evaluate the situation properly...understanding that both sides need to come to a compromise...how simple is that?
Sincerely
Tonie
