Look inward; it’s happening there.
Every group unconsciously establishes an emotional etiquette. Some emotions are in, some out. Cross into emotionally uncharted territory, and you will be brought to task by the uninitiated.
As blood is essential at the surfaces of our bodies, so also emotions are essential at the surfaces of our souls.
Night cools the hot earth, so a calm answer cools an angry person.
Trust means acting past feeling.
Trust is an ultimate eudaimonia.
Fear is the daughter of pride.
There is no steady state of self-esteem. Emotions fluctuate with health and strength and success. Emptiness and disappointment and weakness help us drop the myth of invulnerability and bond with all the other unstable beings on earth.
Our emtions are like dandelion puff balls: not much permanence here.
People sometimes tell you the opposite of what they are really feeling. Then it’s up to you to sleuth them out. If you discover them, and help them get what they don’t know how to get for themselves, they’ll adore you for life.
Love speaks up often about differences, asks questions constantly about feelings, processes hurts immediately with others and is ever vigilant for new offences that must be talked about and healed.
In conversations reveal yourself, be free, be imperfect, be open; most everyone you talk to will like the experience of you.
Fear is transient. It quickly gives way to higher emotions. Banish it with righteous anger, passion and expectation.
