Normally we want to avoid or stay away from things or people who irritate us.  Yet, dismissing them so easily could be at the cost of dismissing the lesson.  We have all had experiences where we find ourselves encountering the same situation or type of person.  The circumstances or setting may be different but we find what we are feeling to be the same.  Contrary to popular belief we are not surrounded by irritating people. This is where the seemingly harsh realization that the common factor in the situation is us.  It does not need to be harsh if we are open to welcoming in the lesson.  We are here to grow. I am certain God is about growth.  She is ready to support anything that will enable us to expand our experience and knowledge of the presence of love.  In some fairy tale land this sounds like rainbows, fairies, and flowers.  On planet earth this means seeing the difficulties and irritations for what they really are . . . portals to love in disguise.  Growing sometimes comes with pain.  Often it is not what is happening that causes pain, it is the resistance to looking at it.  I have done enough experimenting in my own life to know I cannot completely avoid things.  It is part of our evolutionary nature to grow and as God would see it, grow in love and light.  Embracing irritations can provide a portal to light where we have only witnessed darkness and God is ready to take our hand and guide us through our hearts to witness the power of love and light.  Irritations are an indication of  our inner discord which can be taken on with courage and allow us to live as the warriors of love we are called to be.
