Running and Rawness

When I start to approach a raw spot for me, I can feel myself panicking and wanting to run away.  I start to engage in rash actions, losing my normally patient approach.  I must breath and take a step back calmly, and sit in the unfolding.

Currently I can see my fear of social mistakes playing out.  I'm hyperaware when others might be socially inappropriate.  And when I push the boundaries of what is socially acceptable, part of me also worries that I may have pushed too far.  Subconsciously it might be a way of testing out some of my greatest fears, a hidden fear of rejection, a hidden fear of losing connections...
