when’s the last time, someone has try to talk you out of a pick-me-up emotion? you know, “oh, you’re happy. what can i do to help?”, your excited? we can’t have that.”, “you’re upbeat. how can I fix that?” but that’s what happens to bring-me-down emotions. something not only seems incongruous, it also seems wrong.
no wonder so many people choose to run from their bring-me-down emotions. actions condition us that they are bad or wrong, that they need to be fixed.
newsflash! bring-me-down emotions don’t need to be fixed any more than pick-me-up emotions.
your blog post inspired me to write my own about brokenness and why I feel people attempt to pull us out of that.
I agree, all feelings must b felt. They are neither right nor wrong, they just are. Hope you are well xo
Surprisingly, i’m getting closer. posting soon.
Glad to hear it!
