Thoughts and Emotions…
I haven’t written here for ages. Manly because i have been busy with my work and when i get free time i end up wasting it by noticing how small changes in ones life converts to massive changes around him/her. One of the questions which always bothers me is does our thoughts control our emotions or do our emotions end up controlling our minds.
I have a hunch that if we don’t have control over our thoughts and their power, then our emotions can take control over ourselves.
But its certainly not easy to control. We usually allow positive emotions and thoughts be dependent on external factors. And negative emotions can come even without external factors. A simple thought can trigger a negative emotions which might have bad influence on our judgment.
Good emotions that depend only on external factors don’t last. And negative emotions can produce bad thoughts and even worse emotions. I’m pretty sure not only external factors cause diseases but negative emotions are an open door for them too.
Why is it so difficult to make a positive emotion last and so difficult to get rid of the negative ones? The key is learning how to reject every negative emotions when they come. We’re humans, we can’t control there coming but what we can control is how easily to get rid of them.
Rejecting negative emotions bring good thoughts and positive emotions that are not dependent on external factors and can last much longer.
I know its all easy to think logically and write it down, but when it comes to practically doing this most of us end up in the same mess with negative emotions all the time. But i believe with practice this would improve and we would see benefits not only in our lives but also the people around us. Anyways the reason for this blog post is quite simple. I mostly am similar to the isolated character played by George Clooney in Up in the Air and also flow his philosophy of having zero baggage what so ever in life. But sometimes you tend to come across situations which makes u wonder!!!
