When the most uncomfortable, painful emotions hit us... Sometimes there's an added feeling of guilt for having such feelings, which only adds to our pain: It's as if there's some authority figure telling us it's not okay to feel as we do.
I believe we're pulled towards fulfillment... The feelings themselves are often already painful enough to drive us toward fulfillment if we're able to discern what our needs are. I don't think an extra added whip is necessarily.... Though compassion for our pain, or for our situation, may be useful. And if we feel isolated, remembering others, and having compassion for their suffering can help us feel more plugged in.
