Emotion

We humans are emotional beings. Everything we do, is based on emotions. We try to 
solve problems by listening to our emotions, to see how to handle them. But what are 
emotions actually? Emotions are bottled-up feelings that come out when things 
become too much. When we find ourselves in a situation in which there is something 
we do not understand or disagree with. Things become too much for the brain and
from inside you get the feeling that you want to cry or talk about it with someone. 
Sometimes, our emotions become too strong to handle, the world around us getting 
us down. We get emotional, blurt out everything and tell someone about our 
frustrations. Showing one's emotions to others is like walking in the street naked, 
everybody being able to see you. Showing emotions is terrible when it happens with 
someone who is waiting to find your weak spot.

Getting your emotions under control is difficult, but possible if you want to. Ask the 
Universal energy to help you, and you can be released. It is not that you will no longer 
be emotional, but you will know how to handle such situations. You will see that time 
heals all problems and you will see what others were trying to do to you. Being
emotional is no longer a problem and others cannot use it against you.

If you listen to your feelings and work with the Universal energy, you will see that you no
longer have a weak spot that others could use to hurt you. It seems very common these 
days to find someone's weak spot and try to bring that person down in society. People 
make a living out of it and many psychiatrists earn great amounts of money to heal
those who suffer from the effects. This is strange, because everybody can to do it 
quite easily.

Emotions present the dark side of your life, like negative input. Banish negative 
emotions and ask the Universal energy for assistance. It is possible and you will get 
stronger in life, in spite of those who live off the pain of others. Follow your feelings, 
walk away when others are negative and keep away from people who want to hurt you. 
When you do that, the Universal energy will lead you to new places where others will 
treat you as a human being. Not accepting negative input makes your world positive 
and enables you to find your way.
