Jim, the idea of sharing is always the same. Giving people space to verbalise their
feelings in a safe place. It is about love and openness, about exploring things that
we keep hidden from ourselves.
An area where this is very true is grief. You can be fine, things are level and coping.
You then start to talk about the person you have lost and the tears flow. For some guys
they hate this, rather than just letting it happen, and go to a place where you know how
much it matters to you. Emotions are very strange, like a wave the wash in take over
reach a peak and then wash on. It changes you by letting this happen and is a way of
letting go and becoming something different.
If one buries this force, it seeks release and does not stop pushing which causes all sorts
of other issues, which vary. So finding a space with others can help and as guys we are very
poor at doing this.
These are just things I share as a healed brother. We are the body of Christ, given as gifts one
to another to serve and help each other.
You sound like you see others rather as problems to be avoided and a challenge to something good.
You are very keen to label people, but maybe this is partly your defence mechanism talking.
God bless you.
