Give Me Space – Adam Factor 16, Single Men
“I’m fairly sure that my cute next door neighbor thinks I’m a stalker. She wrote it on Facebook, Twitter, and even in both of her diaries.” unknown

“Most of us are unaware of how important vocabulary is to emotion skills. As we’ve seen, using many different words implies valuable distinctions—that we’re not always simply angry but are sometimes annoyed, irritated, frustrated, disgusted, aggravated, and so on. If we can’t discern the difference, it suggests that we can’t understand it either. It’s the difference between a rich emotional life and an impoverished one. Your child will inherit the one you provide.”

“Emotion regulation is not about not feeling. Neither is it exerting tight control over what we feel. And it’s not about banishing negative emotions and feeling only positive ones. Rather, emotion regulation starts with giving ourselves and others the permission to own our feelings—all of them.”

“The irony, though, is that when we ignore our feelings, or suppress them, they only become stronger. The really powerful emotions build up inside us, like a dark force that inevitably poisons everything we do, whether we like it or not. Hurt feelings don’t vanish on their own. They don’t heal themselves. If we don’t express our emotions, they pile up like a debt that will eventually come due.”

thanks for the friend invitation, Marc. The Secret discussion is not the first one I have participated in that has spawned crazed, rude responses with foul language. I am constantly amazed & saddened by those who have such lousy attitudes. One would hope that you could engage in a civilized discussion even if you disagree. I appreciated your attempts to steer the discussion back to "normalcy"!
