hi guys..
Partying naah
here is something that gave me a food to think..its ofcourse my question paper!! but a passage given for reading actually filled my stomach as if i had eaten 10 meals in one go.. so pls read this...
There are so many things we humans tend to hold back on. We repress a lotof our emotions, whether they are considered 'good' or 'bad' ones.
Sometimes we hold back on expressing our love for fear of being misunderstood, or perhaps thinking the timing is not 'right'.Most commonly we have been taught to hold back our 'negative' emotions fear,anger,sorrow,pain etc.
As a child I was often told to squelch those emotions that demonsrated weakness. i held back my tears inn order to appear strong. i repressed my anger to be a "good girl" and "loving one".
Yet i now realise that holding back anger or anyother emotion affects negatively the person who is holding back.THe anger I refused to let out stayed locked up inside, fermented and gave rise to all kinds of poison.Frustratins and anger were witheld only to explode when i'd 'had enuf'..This anger later had to be released through illness,situations where the anger was unleashed at someone or something else (or at myself) or through therapy.
What happens when u feel anger (consciouly/ subconsciouly) but wnt to hide it? watever we hold bck becomes a part of us & gets stored in our body as a tangible manifestation in the form of headaches,tension etc..
of course we feel that by holding back on expressing our anger we are doing the "right" thing and not hurting any1.Yet little do we know the other person may need to hear what we have to say, just as much as we need to express it.
ofcourse we need to learn how to express our anger / discontent without bumping on the other. We can xpress ourselves without destroying the other person's sense of self worth/attacking them emotionally, verbally/ physically.
Expressing our deepest feelings also applies to expressing feelings of love and appreciation.That person may really need to hear ur words of praise to give them boost in their own self-esteem.May be they are unaware of what you really see in them.
our rational mind has been well trained to dissect and analyse.It likes to hold bck on acting instinctively and instead ques scientifically what is the 'right' action to take.So we've held our true selves back and not expressed that inner inspiration to laugh, cry, scream, give a hug,etc when our 1st feeling guided us to do so.
whatever first thoughts comes to you is your intusions.Any other thiughts that follow like "may be i shldn't say that" are all ur ego doubting and ques, afraid of making a mistake.
The best thing to do is to follow your 1st instinct, ur inner guidance, which comes as the first feeling.That is ur 'God self'.the universal power of love guides us towards happiness and tahts why our 1st instinct is always the one that brings us happiness.
We can choose to let go of the fear of being wrong'appearing ridiculous.and act on our feelings.Be true to urself.Holding back / postponing truths are like postponding the freedom to be who we really are loving, truthful humans who desire to be happy & free frm -vity.
Let go! Expess your truth today! You and Your world will be better for it."
sorry if its toooooooooooo long but i think it has something to do with the characters of KASTURI.
