Great question, thank you. Sometimes I say these things, knowing they are home truths but not knowing no one knows what I am talking about!

First, I did not specify “back”. It has nothing to do with being stabbed in the back. I am talking about being stabbed, period. Because what happens when someone stabs you?

What happens is there is an energy exchange. If someone hits you, same thing. If someone oppresses you in any way. If someone kisses you, same thing. They are transferring their energy to you and at that point…it’s yours.

Get it? A person cannot stab you without giving you energy. And energy is neutral until directed. So when this persons lashes out, you now have their energy and what you do with it is completely up to you.

Now… for the record, I learned this by being stabbed! That’s right. Someone stabbed me when I was a kid…15, and I just wasn’t in the mood to be injured by that. So you know what I did? I pulled the knife out of my arm and just looked at that fucker like this:

“What do you think you’re doing, fool? Who do you think you are stabbing, you stupid motherfucker? Me? Well that’s not going to work.”

::smiles::

So think about that. He’s got all this rage, sticks a knife in me and I immediately neutralize his energy. It’s like a hard-on gone soft, isn’t it? And maybe I looked at him like this, “Try that again and I’ll kill you.” He didn’t stab me again. And now it’s years later and I own that knife. Don’t you think? Who has the knife? Me? Or him? And don’t you think I’m just a tad fearless courtesy that experience?

So that is what I did with that energy. As opposed to letting it crush me. As opposed to spending the next twenty years in abusive relationships, getting re-victimized.

But let come back with another example, not so extreme. Because this phenomena happens every day all around you and if you can get hip to this, the benefits are endless.
