Angry at the World
In my opinion, my childhood and family life were above average. Although I was privileged, I was angry. I dreamt of escaping from everything. I always thought it was the real world that I hated. From the time I started pre-school as a child I was rebellious. I was defiant. I simply couldn’t be controlled. I always felt that there was something wrong with the system.
At nineteen, I left my small town and drove to the big city of Los Angeles. I immediately hated the place. Then a friend introduced me to Johrei. As I received Johrei, my life improved. I was happier; I felt peace like I had never known before. My hatred and anger towards many things had faded away. For example: I had always had a strained relationship with my father. Suddenly, he started calling me and talking to me without any conflict. We’ve been good ever since. But it’s odd right? I mean my behavior towards him hasn’t changed. I don’t want to jinx it so I don’t mention it to him.
I get Johrei whenever I can. I always feel good when I get home. My mind is always clear and calm after Johrei and my quality of life improves. I also now have a sense of compassion towards so many people I wouldn’t have noticed before.
