Hello Readers,
Unexpressed emotions will never die. They lie deep down within your soul, buried alive and will surface at some time later when something triggers them off, and then an outpouring commences, something that should have perhaps happened a long time ago.
What truly aches and can really affect you is having so much pent up energy and repressed feelings swirling around inside of you and not having the slightest clue of how to deal with any of it. Your imagination runs riot and you expect the worst case scenario. People go to their graves worrying about things that never actually happened, but lived in a constant state of fear needlessly.
When you bottle up your emotions and try to run away and hide away from reality, these same problems have a habit of returning back at some point in the future to haunt you because you haven’t dealt with them, instead you just kept running away from one place to another. We try so hard to hide everything we are really feeling as though we are not supposed to have natural reactions to life because it isn’t the done thing. Stiff upper lip and all that. A very unhealthy attitude and it doesn’t solve anything.
Often our feelings are kept hidden so as to avoid causing worry and harm to others or to a avoid confrontation and conflict. If you spend your life sparing someone’s feelings and feeding their vanity, it becomes difficult to distinguish what can or cannot be respected about them, and so the muddle continues.
Some people find it difficult to express their feelings, so they keep quiet because they don’t really know where to begin their story. They are afraid of sounding foolish or becoming a burden. In their mind it’s easier to stay quiet, but it’s not an ideal way to get problems resolved or to achieve anything. A distinct lack of communication is usually the cause of most misunderstandings. Always be mindful of anyone who has a continuous smile on their face because that usually conceals an inner toughness about them that is almost frightening.
Take some time to cry, laugh and shout, and do whatever you need to let those feelings out before they cause you to become ill. Once you learn that the way out and moving forwards is through flowing with your emotions and just observing where they intend taking you, and then you will suddenly begin to feel so much better.
Never apologise for showing your feelings because when you do, you are apologising for the truth that you feel inside of you. Your present will soon become your past whilst your past will surface in your future and in the end, none of it really matters and no one ever really cared, so none of it was ever worth it.
Love and Light,
Linda and The Lulas xxx
