Hi babe you look beautiful tonight.
Hello handsome. You're such a great man.
Hmmmm?
What if you could have this type of relationship with your emotions?
It's actually possible.
Now I'm not going to say that you aren't going to have fights from time to time, but what I am saying is that you can have a much healthier relationship with one another than you have right now.
I'm not going to tell you about happy emotions today. Not a chance.
I'm going to speak straight from the heart and talk to you about those deep dark places in your soul that rumble around. The pit in each of us that is blacker than black.
Hate. Fear. Greed. Anxiety. Anger.
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 we all have access to those emotions and they are incredibly powerful and possibly destructive if you don't know how to skillfully handle them.
That's what I really 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 when we have committed to going out into the world and actually living, to chasing our dreams and to being the best person we can possibly be, we change in ways we never predicted. Along with that light comes the shadows and we must be able to coexist with our own shadow no matter how dark it may be at times.
The skill to develop here is this...
Use all of the colors of your life, the dark ones and the light ones, to create something inspiring.
In the darker times of our lives, we must use those colors to express and share our experience as it is. We cannot hide from the shadows. Rather, we must use those shadows to our advantage.
Create everything with it.
Express the brilliant chaos in your soul and let the world see who you truly are.
Stuffing things down or avoiding what you are actually feeling is a ticking time bomb waiting to explode.
And guess what? It always explodes.
Paint something beautiful on the canvas of your life with all of the colors available to you.
