People say that what we are all seeking is meaning for life. I think that what we're really seeking is an experience of being alive, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonance within our innnermost being and reality, so that we can actually feel the rapture of being alive.
You are not your “Emotions.” You
have emotions – the ability to feel within yourself as a reaction to what you
hear, see, taste, smell, and feel means your senses. Now, this may surprise
you, but you have the ability to choose the way you feel /your emotional state.
First, it is absolutely vital
that you understand that you are a three-part being: spirit, soul and body.
Everyone who has ever been born into this world has these same three parts.
The spirit is the part of a
person that makes him alive. When the physical body dies, the spirit leaves the
body. That spirit does not cease to exist; it leaves this physical world and
goes to the spiritual world – what the Bible calls “heaven” or “hell.”
The soul is the part of a person
which is his mind, his will, and his emotions.The brain is physical – a part of
the body – it processes the information received from the physical senses. It
is not the mind. The mind has taken in information from the brain.
The body is your earth suit. Your
spirit and soul live in your body. One must have a body to be alive in this
world. Without a body, your spirit and soul must go to one of the other two
places. We need little explanation about our bodies because most people are
more aware of their bodies than they are of the spirits and souls. However, we
must realize that the body is simply the physical “thing” that you move around
in on this earth. It is highly complex and most of our time in our lives is
spent on taking care of, feeding, pampering, medicating, resting, and
protecting our bodies. I am not saying that is wrong. But we have certainly
given our attention to our bodies and neglected our spirits and souls. Your
spirit and soul are the real you. The body is what the real you lives in.
Every day, passion speaks to us through our feelings. That’s why when you allow yourself to become anesthetized by what others think, you literally block yourself from living the life you were called to live. I promise you that if you make a choice that doesn’t please your mate, your friends, your mother, or whoever, the world will not fall apart. The people who truly love you want you to love yourself.
I have come to realize that the
heart is that place in you where your spirit and soul come together. You can
choose to feel the emotions from the wonderful things which are in us as a
result of the new birth.
Life is like an unsolved puzzle. No
one can define what life is because it is a very complex thing. Life is
something that makes you happy and proud at times and makes you feel so low at
times that you say to yourself, "Why was I born?" But whatever it is,
it is real fun. In Life, in every moment, something new happens; something that
you never expected, something that you were waiting from a long while to happen
and something you were expecting to happen. It is a combination of happiness,
sorrow, joy, love, anger, enjoyment, loneliness, fear, excitement and many
other emotions.
“Dil pe jo tere ghum ki inayat nahi hoti,
aankhon se aansuon ki rafaakat nahi hoti
hum rehnuma se iltizaa kare to kyun kare, dariya
ko raaston ki zaroorat nahi hoti
bujhta hai ai chiraag-e-zindagi tou bujh jaye,
ab humse teri aur hifaazat nahi hoti
jane yeh log kaise nibhate hai jafaaein, humse
tou iss gunaah ki himmat nahi hoti
patthar kahon use tou kis zuban se kahon,
pattharon mein itni nazakat nahi hoti
tujhko gaye hue tou zamane guzar gaye, yaad teri
iss dil se kyun rukhsat nahi hoti
jo bhul jaye tumko tum bhi usko bhula do, woh
mohabbat tou mohabbat nahi hoti”
The definition of the word life
can't be completed without using the word emotions. Some people work in emotions
whereas others work with emotions. So it's very important to understand how
people are using their emotions. If they are letting emotions get control over
them, then they'll be dragged by others and situations all the time. But, if he
is controlling his emotions in a proper way, then no one will ever have control
over him.
The way a person uses his emotions
is what we call attitude. Someone has correctly said, "Your attitude
determines your altitude in life"attitude, as I already defined, is the
way an individual uses his emotions and directly related to the psyche of a
person.
Some people use their emotions in a
positive way and some people do it in a negative sense. When people use
emotions in a positive way we call it positive attitude and when they use it in
a negative way we call it negative attitude. It's up to an individual to decide
how he uses his emotions. Which way will you decide?
You are innately designed to use your personal power. When you don't, you experience a sense of helplessness, paralysis, and depression-which is your clue that something is not working as it could. You, like all of us, deserve everything that is wonderful and exciting in life. And those feelings emerge only when you get in touch with your powerful self.
Remember, in our inmost being, we are all completely lovable because spirit is love. Beyond what anyone can make you think or feel about yourself, your unconditioned spirit stands, shining with a love nothing can tarnish.
