Anger conquers when unresolved.

Recommended Posts

I wanted to share this thought for the day with you all:

Emotions need recognition. But not only attention; they also need acceptance as powerful dimensions of who we are. Their influence over who we are capable of becoming is mighty.

Respectful attention and willing acceptance of our emotions, whether fear or anger or hateful jealousy, takes away their sting. We can prevent them from growing larger than they are. Like a child who screams and misbehaves more and more fiercely until attention is won, our emotions grow larger and more intense the longer we deny their existence.

Our emotions bless us, in reality. They enrich our experiences. They serve as guideposts on the road we're traveling. They serve us well when acknowledged. On the other hand, when ignored or denied, they can immobilize us, even defeat us.
My feelings frequent my being, always. They steer my behavior. They reflect my attitudes.

But that is all that they are, guideposts.... indications of past experience and an offer of how to deal with a future one. Never believe that your emotions are who you are, they are indications offering one solution to a repeat of a past experience, or a potential reaction to a new one. They are not you, and if the "solution" offered is not truly beneficial they can be trained by action and responsibity for those actions... to more accurately reflect your ability to lead a balanced life. And in the balance lies peace.......
Pete Draper,

Just because my life plan is written on the back of a Hooter's Napkin, it's still a life plan.... right?

My reality and yours are quite different.
