Energy displacement

by Kiki Yaku on Feb 18, 2010 16:43:23

A sudden disappearance of energy from your body, making you feel disconnected from the world. You feel as though all life is outside of you, in a spiritual sense, and from another point of view, you look like in a daze. Can be unpleasant for you and others, because you look sick or disturbed. Resting for a little while can put the energy back in the right place.

Example:
Fred: Hey, what's wrong with Danny?
George: I don't know, he looks as though he has energy displacement. Look at his face; it's not focused on anything!

Displaced Anger

Anger is often associated with suspicion and mistrust, and can manifest itself in feelings of hostility, frustration, exasperation and even fury.

But what happens when you displace your anger?

Anger displacement occurs when you direct your angry thoughts and feelings at someone or something that is safe or convenient, rather than the actual source of your anger.

Example:
--Damn girl, did you hear about all that drama with Tina and Joey?

-Ya, I heard that Tina found out Joey's was messin around with that hoe Juicy!!
--Ya, now Tina wants to kill that hoe Juicy, but she finnen ta take Joey back
-Damn, that's whack talk about displaced anger
