COSMOS EXPLAINS THE INJUSTICE COLLECTOR
Hi, it’s Cosmos Crow again. I hoped you enjoyed our little story and maybe learned a few things. This part of the story is called the rationale because I will try to make some of the confusing parts of the story make a little more sense and give you some exercises and games to help you learn how to avoid being an Injustice Collector.
In your world, people can be injustice collectors just as in the story. Of course, you don’t have crystal spheres but you do have memories and imagination that allow you to “pull up” injustices and make yourself upset. Most people do this “recalling of injustices” to some degree but some people do it a lot and it becomes a habit. If you have the habit of collecting and recalling injustices, you will find that you are becoming an Injustice Collector and that this will cause you many life difficulties.
How can you tell if you or someone else is an Injustice Collector?
Are you or they quick to become angry at the least situation or problem or failure?
Are you or they quick to get “hurt feelings” over insignificant or typical “no big deal” stuff?
Do you or they get angry or sad all out of proportion to the situation? Do you or they say things like “that may be true now but do you remember when such and such happened?”
