Hello and how are you my readers!
Just how are you feeling today? Happy, joyous, vibrant? Or perhaps you are feeling low, sad or depressed?
Feelings or emotions are the central point of how we live our lives. Emotions charge our actions, and our actions chart our lives. That is why each time we are bored, nothing gets done. Each time we feel energetic and lively, it everything seems to fall in place automatically.
Emotions are powerful. And there’s many of them. If not hundreds, maybe there are thousands different emotions that a human can feel. But generally out of these thousands of emotions we are only stuck with a few. And most out of those few are negative emotions. Angry, sad, jealous,frustrated and disgusted are the most common feelings that come to us. We really seldom feel exhilarated, joyful or enthusiatic. Even if we do feel exhilarated, it is only when we give ourselves a temporary material drug; a new (bank-loaned) sports bike for example.
I can see why; we are living in a modern world that is confusing everyone. We have to find money to live, as we are bound by the laws of modern living. The law says that you need to have a 9-5 job to earn a living. The law says you need to take big loans from banks to stay in a house or buy a car. The law also assumes that you must spend your mornings and evenings depressed in oceans of traffic jam. You are tied to the materialistic regulations that drains your energy, and keeps you away from your true self. And thus, we forget to be happy.
Choose how you feel
Amidst the relentless, tiring, exhausting job that you are in, take some time for this remedy. Look up to the skies, enjoy the fascinating artwork of nature, take pleasure from the vibrant gradients of the sky. If you have trees around you, let your eyes wander on its swaying branches, magnificent trunks and beautiful leaves. I assure you that you immediately will feel glad, because you will again remember that life is full of glorious and magnificent things.
Life is not so bad, actually. You are still living, in one piece, and you have a good life so far. You are probably not as rich as Michael Jackson, but you aren’t crippled, dying or live in a dumpster either. Life is a miracle, a great gift from God with so many happiness in it. Cling to this emotion; there is so much more in life than being sad, angry or hating others. There is simply too much more. Get out there and enjoy life, not hating it.
If you can control your emotions, you can control your life.
Just remember this: “I feel, therefore I am.”
