It's amazing how feelings and emotions can change your mindset either instantaneously or gradually with time...If you sit back and think how many instances in your life have been swayed by your feelings, you'll be astonished to realise that most of your decisions will have been either partially or completely influenced by your feelings at that moment of time. I personally find this rather scary...How can something that originates out of nowhere, simply through certain hormonal changes combined with changes in your near environment, have such a huge impact on you and your entire life? It's like you're being controlled by an external force, something you can't hamper with, something that you are in a way forced to accept and deal with, and something that you can't stop from affecting your life no matter how hard you try...
Many a times you feel overwhelmed by your emotions...you feel like they either do you complete good, or complete wrong...Wouldn't everyone of you love to feel happy, overjoyed, secure, and loved? It is those feelings that get you through some of the darkest hours of your life....Cherish them...you never know how long they will last...
On the contrary, feelings such as loneliness, anger, guilt, and loss of confidence are some of those emotions probably none of you wish to come across...yet, you do...and you do so rather often, especially then when you least require them...
You now have two options: either to let them bring you down, or to fight them...The first is the easier and less difficult option, whereas the latter involves both time and enormous patience...but in the end, you should know that it's all worth it...
Every single day you live you need to fight against these negative feelings...and believe me when I say, it ain't easy...but then again, who ever said it would be easy? No one...But if you let them overwhelm you, its you who's going to lose...and you lose not only your self-confidence and self-respect, but most importantly you risk losing yourself...And once you do lose yourself, it's hard seeing the light that lines every dark cloud...it's hard then to believe in something that's been damaged a long time ago...it's hard finding yourself again and becoming who you were, who you were meant to be...Don't let them bring you down...You are stronger than that...
Feelings, feelings, feelings...so unpredictable, so uncertain, and so influential....You can't erase them, and you can't always control them...but never let them control you...Fight, with all your heart, and in time, you will win even this battle...
Believe that in the end it's all worth it and your belief will gradually transform into reality...
And always bear in mind..."Every experience that doesn't kill you makes you stronger"... Try to use this "experience" as a stepping stone towards becoming a stronger human being, both physically and mentally...
