...we will face many hardships in life, but no matter how upset we are, never forget that we still have a life to be responsible for too. When we don't manage our emotions and keep it in check, we might also run the risk of ruining other aspects of our lives too.
-
I think it's easy to let the feels get to us - it's easy to just give in to the temptation of being comfortable in that sadness, or in that helplessness. But we have to remember that we are in control of our emotions, not the other way round. We cannot just wait around to feel happy, we actually have to decide to want to be happy. We cannot just allow our anger to take control of our tongue, we actually have to take charge of our anger. We cannot just drown in sadness, we actually have to be our own lifebuoy and manage that sadness. Because we are the captain of our lives, not our emotions.
You see, as soon as we start taking back the control of our emotions, we also start taking back control of our lives. " An excerpt from TuesdayLoveLetter by Aida Azlin
