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. ↗

I hadn't thought about Mom as much as I probably should have lately. It was a relief not to have all those emotional waves rolling through me at the mere vision of her face in my mind.

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? ↗
