Emotions are the substances that make us real. They tell us who we are and where are passions lie.
For so long, I have seen in others and believed in myself, that emotions were cruel, erratic taskmasters to be surpressed, hidden and apologized for.
For far, far too long....I was deeply wrong.
Emotions are barometers, indicators of where our love, fear and passions exist. They are not wicked or evil. They need not suppression or explanation.
A healthy emotional being honors, trusts and respects their emotional content.
I used to believe all anger was bad and quite dangerous. Now, I see anger is an ally that allows me to stand up for my self, my sons and injustice.
Sadness, well, sadness unites us....to one another.
Fear and panic are signals that something is amiss...something oft from long ago, or deeply hidden.
Jealousy is a manifestation of something lacking within ourselves.
Rage, is angers older, overbearing and out of control sibling. An obvious sign of feeling helpless in some way, shape or form.
Anxiety is lack of comfort with oneself and ones surroundings.
To hide, deny and surpressed what we feel, is to forsake who we really are. There is nothing real, true or honest about that. Dare to be yourself...express who you are...hide from no one, especially yourself
