Emotions. We all have 'em. Sometimes they can overtake us causing us to act in ways that seem almost crazy. We are human after all.
We can follow these emotions, be controlled by them, lose ourself in them. But is that how you want to live, controlled by your emotions?
Living with just our emotions and desires from our five senses we become a slave to our environment. Just as the spring leaves on trees blow back and forth in the wind, we too can be pushed and pulled by our emotions and our environment.
Living from the soul, we realize that we are have a bright light that is meant to shine and be seen. That light brightens our environment, gives us hope and helps us to grow in this lifetime. Being aware of our emotions, developing a sixth sense connecting to our true essence and being in the present moment helps us to shine our light on our emotions and our environment. Grounded in our true selves, we aren't as easily affected by the rising and falling tide of emotions or the changes in the environment around us.
Don't be a slave or victim to or of your emotions and desires. Be aware and know that you have a soul. Ground yourself in this knowing.
