SELF-IMPROVEMENT

Don’t Trust Your Emotions, Especially Those Bad Ones

What if the reason for our emotions is to deprive us of our power?

Sounds crazy, I know. Especially to those who like to teach about the inner child. But let’s have a look at this closer. I am going to write about my personal experience with these capricious, but recurring moods.

I used to be a very sensitive person. And honestly, still I am. Nevertheless, I didn’t cry for months, if not years. Now I hear you saying, “You have to vent your feelings”…

But today, I didn’t manage the situation, and my emotions overwhelmed me. Someone destroyed what I was creating for months. I will get it back, but so as so, it hurt. And a lot, if it repeats from time to time.The last days were quite stressful as I was waiting for more visitors from Europe, so days were busy and time for relaxation didn’t exist. All these caused me not to manage my emotions.

It is not that I live just in peace and nothing stressful is around. No. But other times, more or less, I can control it.

So, how was it after my wild, negative emotions were free?
