Confessing the Emotions

by: Endah Pramesti

We were created as human beings with thoughts and emotions, so we are sentient beings. Each of us must have felt sad, happy, angry, and so on as a form of emotion that arises. A fun fact is that we will always need a space to vent all the emotions that arise, we usually call it a coping mechanism.

Well, everyone's coping mechanism certainly varies, the most extreme is to endanger yourself in order to feel safe.

The emotions themselves are either positive or negative, and these are mostly formed by the environment around us, influencing our thoughts. Therefore, it is very important to be able to control them. You really need to know that in this world there are things that we can control, and things that are beyond our control.

We just need to accept and be aware of these emotions, because they are there to be felt, and also what we need to stay away from is thinking about what people think about us. If you care about what others think, you will always depend on them and even live your life as they dictate.

We have to learn to feel emotions, acknowledge, and realize their presence. Rest assured, that emotions are always temporary. They will continue to change over time. You just need to give yourself time and space.

Being aware of your emotions is a routine that many people don't realize they need to practice and learn. Then what do we have to do?

Journaling

Take your book and pen, then let out all the thoughts that bother you. let this be a reference and reminder that you were once in this position, before being very good the day after.

Moving! Take some simple exercise or walk around the house

grab your earphones and get moving! Put on some uplifting music, expose your body to the sun, and let's go around the house. see what's going on around us, that time will go on and we are never alone.

Those two things are the easiest to do. Your emotions will depend on the choice you make.

If you had a pretty bad yesterday, start the day by listening to “Brand New Day” by Cherrybelle to lift up your mood for today. Why that song specifically?
