Emotions 101

Let it all out

Feelings, we all have them and they are as always, subject to change without a moments notice.  Where feelings are involved, all men and women are in the same boat and feelings never discriminate.

Sadness should never be, but reality hits home sometimes and it is what it is.  A loved one passes and those feelings usually come at us full force.  That feeling of sadness always stays on the back burner and manifests itself whenever it gets its chance.

Loneliness should never ever be a factor but unfortunately it is.  No person should feel this way but emotions show no favoritism.  Loneliness manifests itself for one reason, it hates when you are alone.  You really don’t have to be alone to feel alone.  To be ignored is a shame but that is not a problem of the person being unnoticed, it is a problem of the one doing the ignoring. Emotions have a job to do and when it sees its chance to do its job, it takes it for it definitely is not lazy.

Happiness comes in spurts and when it does, watch out because the aftereffects can be harmful.  For one to be happy is grand but remembering that happiness will not be there for you might leave you lonely and you may just feel ignored and start to get lazy and sad.

Ok, so we are now very much aware of what emotions are capable of but you must learn to control them, but that is easier said than done.  Confrontation is not always your best bet.  Sometimes it is better to let things go because it will make you angry when others who make you feel the way you do, really don’t react to your attacks head on.  This will create anger within you and we don’t want that on top of everything else.

To control your feelings, you must learn to get comfortable with yourself.  Become your own best friend and others may follow. 

To combat sadness, when a loved one passes, remember, we do not weep for their passing, we weep for the empty void they might leave behind.  Fill this emptiness with memories, happy memories will beat out sadness every time.  Remember, when someone you love is gone, deceased or not, it is they who ceased not you.

I hope you now have a better understanding about emotions for now the fun is just going to begin. Use emotions to your advantage.  When someone comes at you in anger, make them laugh, that is a great diffuser.  When you want to be noticed, ignore the one you want to notice you and they will get angry and try harder to see what you are up to.  If something makes you bitter, or afraid, avoid those things, and so on.  You get it I am sure but I am only here to remind you that all things are relative and all things can be easily remedied.

I won’t get into some feelings because this is not the time or the place to get those feelings out and about.  Maybe I am ignoring those feelings, maybe not. 

A wife slaps her husband when his eyes stray watching some sexual being giving it all she has got.   There was no need to get angry at him for being human but your emotions were not being controlled at the time.  Watching a woman, in a short skirt with legs up to her neck, tight top exposing all she has to offer is not a crime.  Watching is not something you should get angry about.  What a female should do is compete but most women feel they are not in the running but they are.   For every mans eye on a giggly woman’s torso, there is another mans eye on you and that should make you feel wonderful.

Women love to pretend that they are better than that, they don’t need roving eyes, but stifling emotions and lying about it can be harmful to any relationship. Honesty is a great policy and when emotions are out in the open, all things fall into place.  Secrets are never a way to go.  Talking about your inner desires bring a relationship to new heights.

Saying things others want to hear just to get what you want out of another person, is selfish.  Tell it like it is and although emotions may flair and fly, people would be better off.  “Do I look fat in this?”  Do not answer to save a scene, be honest because when you lie, others that do not will expose your lies later in the day. 

A father telling his son that crying is for sissies is absurd.  To tell someone that they must not cry, it is not manly, is stupid for the one who protests most usually cries inside the most.

All and all emotions exposed lead to a happier and healthier lifestyle.  When all is said and done, life can be a happy place and by letting emotions fly, you weed out the weak, those who cannot take it and befriend the strong and others who like you for being you.  If you liked what you have read, let me know.  If you think I am full of it, then you are starting the path to a great emotional ride through life.
