Feeling your Feelings
It is a small word but has so much influence in each one's life. It can only be experienced from within and directs our actions. Nowadays, we can stream our movies, book our tickets using our phone instantly; however, our emotions do not work that way. They follow the same principle of a plant: constant care is required each day for survival. There are no shortcuts. The continuous nurturing results in stability, or else the endless peaks and troughs only result in an emotional breakdown. Often these feelings generated within can create a storm, and we do not know how to subdue this storm. We can portray to the world that we are fine; however, these feelings slowly eat into our essence of life if they are not appropriately shared. When some opinions cannot be shared with anyone, it begins to feel claustrophobic where you are encaged in your little space. Keeping your feelings to you unless absolutely quintessential is like keeping birds that like to fly high in the sky in a cage...
