@thechrishinton: Ever had something ruin your mood… only to realize you carried that frustration into the next conversation and handed it to someone who had nothing to do with it? I call these emotional infections. Awareness helps us see what we’re carrying. Surrender helps us accept what already happened so we can respond instead of spreading it. The event may have happened to you—but the infection doesn’t have to leave with you. #emotionalintelligence #selfawareness #selfmastery #personalgrowth #emotionalhealing
The first time I heard this was in a voluntary PIP weekend (Partners In Prevention) thing in HS. It was for kids who have had stuff happened or bad home situations, or whatever. It was called "kick the dog". Succinctly, it was man comes home mad, yells at his wife for not already having dinner ready, who yells at her son for something small, who kicks the dog on his way to his room.

Peaceful girl :
I use to do this all the time I am working very hard on not spreading the infection . Years ago I was a very hurt angry human and infected everyone around me. No more! been working on this since my 3rd child was born 25 years ago. He is a true blessing💕

an example would be he trips over something stumbling a little without falling. then busts out in verbal vomit changing everyone in the areas mood kids me. he has a form of muscular dystrophy. he doesn't realize the stress his frustration puts on us all. I would say for myself I may infect people accidentally when im in a hurry or focused and trying to get something done. my tone of voice changes I dont realize im doing this till someone tells me to chill.

That’s why I try to remember to smile and buy the next guys coffee. I am guilty and even pain causes someone to be miserable and pass it on to the next not meaning to. ❤️This such a good reminder.

When my husband died. I felt to sit. The whole world turned on me. I feel like everybody against me was trying to get me. Make sure I stayed as unhappy as I was at the moment. Come along way how do you trust you can find a that kind of love again. I felt abandoned. Took it out everybody.
