Labelling communication "passive aggressive" is an avoidance of the compassion required to tend to the roots of aggression.
Aggression spikes up from fear and resentment, from hurt and protection.
Can I nourish the root of aggression, love and care for what is asking for safety in such a tragically hopeless way?
Can I feel gracious toward the restraint required to keep the aggression passive, and see the love in the way the other may be pulling a punch?
I'm not saying draw in or keep those in a practice of passive aggression close.
I'm offering you the way to LOVE the ones who are already in your life.
This reminds me of words from The Course in Miracles...that everything is an expression of love or a request for love. ♥️
