Emotions enthrall, but change, and as such have the ability to disrupt and destroy. ↗

Sometimes people are smart and beautiful in just of their words. Sometimes, they open their mouth like rain of wisdom but they are garbage in action. All of them are not what they are pretending to say. Some people convey useless words by their tongues or pens in more attractive ways. They are Satan of a human form because they can enable to change their real face like devils can do. Some people open their ears with passion and excitement to accept the painless torn from these devil-like people. ↗

My mom and dad died, but in their place I got a house of fog that’s easy to hide my feelings in. (No smoking, please.)

The bottom line in managing your emotions is that you should put others – not yourself – first in how you handle and process them. Whether you delay or display your emotions should not be for your own gratification. You should ask yourself, What does the team need? Not, What will make me feel better? ↗

The Yogic sages say that all the pain of a human life is caused by words, as is all the joy. We create words to define our experience and those words bring attendant emotions that jerk us around like dogs on a leash. We get seduced by our own mantras (I'm a failure... I'm lonely... I'm a failure... I'm lonely...) and we become monuments to them. To stop talking for a while, then, is to attempt to strip away the power of words, to stop choking ourselves with words, to liberate ourselves from our suffocating mantras. ↗
