Hi sweetheart. You look so beautiful tonight.
Hello handsome man. You look wonderful as well.
Hmmmm?
What would it be like if you could have a relationship like this with your emotions?
It's actually possible.
Now of course you're going to have fights from time to time. However, it is possible that you can have a much more healthy relationship with your emotions.
I'm not going to talk to you today about all of these happy fluttery emotions in your life. Nope.
I'm going to talk about the dark pit in each of us that harbors those deep dark emotions we hate talking about.
Hate. Fear. Greed. Anxiety. Anger.
And a lot of pain.
All of those are in each of us whether we would like to admit it or not. The only difference between us is how these emotions are brought out. For some it could be heartbreak. For others it could be losing a job or getting into a fight with someone.
But none of us are free from these emotions.
That's what I want to talk about today...
Carl Jung, the famous psychologist once said, "The brighter the light the darker the shadow."
If we really follow that logic, the more happiness we experience in this world the more access to sadness we also have. That fact right there scares most people to death.
But as we truly commit to living as a human being, to experiencing everything that the world has to offer, we allow our darkness and our light to be with one another without there being anything wrong with it.
The skill to develop here is this...
Use every color of life, dark and light, to create something beautiful with your pain.
In our dark times, we must use those colors to express our more dangerous emotions that scare us. We have to put those paints on the canvas.
Create as much as you can with these times.
Express the brilliant chaos in your soul and let the world see who you truly are.
Never stuff down your feelings and pretend to be something that you're not.
And guess what? It always explodes.
The dark. The light. Make something beautiful with both.
