Your Emotions and You!

IMAGINE Someone handing you a cheque of $
10,000,000 and you just
standing there, feeling neither Ђa̶̲̥̅̊p̲̣̣̣̥p̲̣̣̣̥γ̲̣̣̥ nor sad;
neither excited nor thrilled! Now, imagine you were
the giver!

Now, I don't think I'd like that. And neither would
you. Is that a lie?
Emotions...
Those feelings, usually spontaneous, that we have
as a reaction
towards something or someone. How would life be
without them?
Oh, I don't know!
Emotions are beautiful things! Those Ђa̶̲̥̅̊p̲̣̣̣̥p̲̣̣̣̥γ̲̣̣̥
moments... And the others.
The BIG question is, is emotion always good. Or is
there a dark side.
Let's treat those, shall we?
Righto!
EMOTION in itself is not an end, but a means to an
end. Hmmm... You
got that? Let me explain...
Emotion is neither good nor bad, because it is
spontaneous(natural).
What we do with it is what matters.
There are two ways to approach emotions.
It's either you master your emotions,
Or you let your emotions master you.
If you chose the former, you are safe...
YOU see, emotions are impulsive. If anyone
succumbs to emotions
straight away, without thinking, such a person fails
to exercise their
power as a human being.
Animals too have instinct. Dog sees you, it barks.
He-goat sees
She-goats... Hmmm... What?
BUT a human must be able to delay the
gratification of the emotion and
juxtapose...
Is it worth it?
Am I overreacting?
Is there a better way of approaching issues?
These are sample questions to ask ourselves before
acting.
A human who subjects themselves to their
emotions has made themselves
a slave of their slave.
Simple! I nailed that, right? Or maybe I didn't.
The Basic thing is to master your emotions, smile
and enjoy life...
Remember...
