Pain has a way of clipping our wings and keeping us from being able to fly.
William P. Young (via thoughtkick)
“You don’t know what a wild, crazy longing I have, what an ache there is inside me.”
— Henry Miller, A Literate Passion: Letters of Anaïs Nin & Henry Miller
“It’s all too much and not enough at the same time.”
— Unknown
“It feels like a punch. Tears fill my eyes, and I wonder how I could be upset over losing something I never had.”
— Jodi Picoult, Between the Lines
“Love doesn’t break your heart, people do.”
— (via perfectfeelings)
“Trust yourself. You have survived a lot. And you will survive whatever is coming.”
— Unknown
everything and everyone is problematic because human beings are problematic and the sooner we accept that, the better. we shouldn’t strive for perfection or ideological purity, it isn’t obtainable. instead, we should ask questions and learn from our mistakes. we can’t learn from anything if we censor every little thing that is deemed problematic? why can’t we just talk about things anymore? being critical of works of fiction is literally the best way to grow as individuals and somewhere along the way, cancel culture has stifled our ability to consume anything that is considered Problematic (when the same things we consider to be politically correct™ now won’t be 20 years from now).
“About all you can do in life is be who you are. Some people will love you for you. Most will love you for what you can do for them, and some won’t like you at all.”
— Rita Mae Brown (via meineluft)
“Sometimes it feels better not to talk. At all. About anything. To anyone.”
— Breaking Bad
“You will never be free until you free yourself from the prison of your own false thoughts.”
— Philip Arnold
Controlling Emotions
To control your emotions you have to give up the idea of control. Emotions are part of your being. They are happening all the time. If you were able to control your emotions, you would be able to stop them. You would be able to choose which emotions to have when. If that were the case, you would always choose to be happy and you would have no problems. If you want to choose to be happy, you have to be able to handle the unchosen emotions like sadness, fear, or anxiousness. It is worth trying to control these emotions, because when they are out of control, they may conspire to ruin your life.
Controlling emotions is difficult because it’s hard to tell what is an emotion and what is supposed to be controlling it. When you experience fear, it takes you over. What is supposed to be controlling the fear is consumed by it. You can’t just make it stop, because you are afraid. You are fear. When you notice that you are fear, then you are no longer fear. You are something separate, safe, and you have some control.
By paying close attention to your emotional highs and lows, you learn to see the pure emotion. The emotion is separate from you and it is separate from the thought, or story, that explains the emotion. If you are sad because your goldfish died, then you can experience sadness. The sadness is something different from you and it is something different from your goldfish dying. Eventually you will be happy and your goldfish will still be dead. That is only the current story attached to your sadness.
When you pay attention to your emotions, self, thoughts and stories, you come as close as you can to controlling emotions. Although you can’t pick when to feel what, you can put each emotion in its context, knowing that you are capable of surviving any and all emotions available to humankind. When you have learned to observe and find comfort in the difficult emotions, the easier emotion of joy will spring forth much more often, just like you wanted.
