All emotions are pure which gather you and lift you up; that emotion is impure which seizes only one side of your being and so distorts you. ~Rainer Maria Rilke You may think that you are a very rational being, but we are just human, and so we are not. Those impulses is what drives most of our commercial industry. And that also drives the things we do and say, and sometimes later regret. So the most important thing you can do is to start to drive your emotions by considering a few things. First off, emotions are like opinions. They aren't truly fact. It's how you feel, which may not mean that the person on the other end of the emotion feels the same that we do. You may think you've ticked someone off... but in reality you maybe only felt that you missed they mark and they didn't even notice. Someone once said to me that emotions color our reality like cartoon figures and they aren't to be taken as absolute, or real. So what about the toxic emotions and relationships. There are those people that are just totally toxic! And so if you are surrounding yourself with toxic people, then you are going to grow to be just like they are. There is nothing that you can do to change someone else, as you know. The only one you can change is yourself. #change #loveyourself #goyamindset #LoveBarbaraChristensen #keepgoing
