Perhaps the best emotions are the kinds of emotions you feel.
Not the ones you want to feel, but the ones you actually do feel.
They will drive you to do more than you believed yourself capable of doing. You will love deeply, pursue passionately, defend valiantly, trust fully and accept openly in ways you never would’ve imagined otherwise.
Perhaps the greatest contributor to this is passion. Regardless of the emotion, whether it’s fear, anger, love, hatred, joy, vengeance, forgiveness, laughter, contentment ….. Passion will make intense that which began as a mere thought.
And if an exhaustion follows each emotion, perhaps that’s an indication that ya just might’ve done something right. You felt the emotion and gave everything you had.
It’s a glorious feeling to know that you gave all you had.
It’s a humbling feeling to know that “all you had” sometimes just isn’t enough to meet someone’s needs.
But it’s a reassuring feeling to know that you will live to do it all again.
On the way out, however, it better hurt like hell to say goodbye to where you’ve been. Because that will be the clearest indication to yourself that whatever it was which first led you down the paths you chose, truly meant something to you and you felt it with a passion that remained.
