FEELINGS:
Why do we struggle so with our feelings? Why do we work
so hard to deny our emotions, especially concerning other
people?
In the course of a day, we may deny we feel frustrated in
reaction to someone who is selling us a service.
We may deny that we feel frustrated, angry, or hurt in
reaction to a friend.
We may deny feelings of fear, or anger, toward our children.
We may deny a whole range of feelings toward our spouse
or our significant other.
We may deny feelings provoked by people we work for, or
by people that work for us.
Sometimes the feelings are a direct reaction to others.
Sometimes people trigger something deeper – an old
sadness or frustration.
Regardless of the source of our feelings, they are still our
feelings. We own them. And acceptance is often all that is
necessary to make them go away.
We don't have to let our feelings control our behavior. We
don't have to act on each feeling that passes through us.
It does help to talk about our feelings with someone we trust.
Sometimes we need to bring our feelings to the person who
is triggering them. That can breed intimacy and closeness.
But the most important person we need to tell is ourselves. If
we allow our feelings to pass through us, accept them, and
release them, we shall know what to do next.
