Negative feelings are huge burdens to carry. How to get rid of them? By becoming aware of them. Is it really that simple? It actually is. The problem is that, usually, you are "not" aware of the baggage you are dragging behind you. If you are jealous, for example, you will not recognize your jealousy for what it is. You say that you are rightly caring for what is yours, or that you are rightly suspicious of the behavior of another, or that you are rightly judging someone else's achievements. The key word here is "rightly". You believe that whatever you feel is not only 'right' but 'righteous'. You ascribe a moral justification to what is simply a petty or unfair attitude. Be honest with yourself, recognize and admit the truth. Only then will you be able to release the burden and proceed on your path as light as a feather.
