How do you feel? …and does that really matter?
We spend so much time talking about what we are feeling and the need to be aware of those feelings- and now we discover that the heart is a liar.
What do we do with that?
First, we feel the feelings. We name them and acknowledge their weight. We search for their source- are they coming from this time zone or the past?
Next, we are going to have to decide what to do with them.
Just because we feel a certain way does that mean we have to act that way (or cover up that feeling)?
That is certainly oversimplifying- but it is essentially what we need to do.
Pay attention to the gauges and lights. Know what is going on inside and why. But don’t let the feelings drive anymore. They’ve had the wheel too long.
