Emotions- Why Don't We Respect Them???

We are living in a world where people don't take time to change their priorities. They don't feel that there is anything wrong in not keeping commitments and the they don't feel important enough to invest into relationships which they have been gifted by God.People are used and misused by their owns.Disrespecting feelings is not a crime under any law.

Do all these things dishearten me? Yes they do! What I feel is, God gives each of us 24hrs a day.Nothing less or more than that. Is it so difficult to invest 10mins into people who are valuable to us? I do feel downhearted but then I promise to myself, I'll invest on people I love. I'll invest my time on them because their presence makes me what I am. I might not be perfect but I want to be a better human being.In this process of growing into a better person, we may get hurt many a times because people don't react the way we expect. But we need to deal with that as well.

Emotions have got a lot of potential. Potential  to move your  heart, potential to face anything that comes your way, potential to feel the importance of other people in your life, potential to  express yourself and potential to make you a responsible human being who is not only responsible for himself but for others as well. I agree, emotions do hurt us many a times, but it's upon you, whether to make a wall out them or a bridge to overcome the obstacles confronted by you.


While reading TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE, I came across the philosophy of detachment.We need to learn to detach ourselves from emotions we are going through, either pleasant or unpleasant. It doesn't mean you should not experience them. It is necessary to feel the things but it's even more important to detach yourself from what you feel because you can not afford to ruin your life. Life is precious....Keep it so..!!!
