The emotions thread - share your emotional management

a reply to: Astyanax

My bad. I was thinking of the context of guilt and shame similar to what you state. The guilt and shame that shouldn't be there kind of feelings. You're correct about the emotions being ok when something truly bad has been done such as criminal acts or harm. I meant all the billions of people feeling guilt or shame on a daily basis for all the wrong reasons.

I think two things make things a lot easier. Numero uno, it really doesn't matter. In a year from now, a week, a month, an hour, who cares? So just keep on rolling with that mentality. Don't be a push over, but realise that sometimes just moving on from an issue is the best thing you can do. After that, just treat others how you'd like to be, and that should help your day to day goings on a lot There's a really great song/speech that I listen to every once in a while that helps put a lot of things into perspective. Hope you enjoy

Yes, this is probably the most important thing we can do: not make people feel like #.

A star just for this. It can be a struggle.
