Thursday, November 20th- Emotions

There are times in your life when many emotions conflict. You can't decide if you should be disgusted, angry, joyful, sad, or scared. It's like there is a massive battle in your head with all these little emotions screaming at you.

Anger seems to say "GET FIRED UP. GET MEAN. GET BACK. IT'S THE ONLY WAY."

Sadness fights back and says "Just go home and eat potatoes and cry. Nothing good will happen anyway. Just be sad."

Disgust screams at you saying "THOSE PEOPLE ARE A BUNCH OF GROSS,  UNSANITARY LOSERS. JUST GET OVER IT. YOU ARE BETTER THAN THEM."

Then Fear strikes and tells you "It might happen again. You can't fight back because they'll be worse. You can't be sad because you will seem weak. Just suck it up and try not to get food poisoning."

But Joy needs to be the  loudest voice in your head. She should say "You will learn from this experience. You should be happy that those people are out of your life. Stay positive!"

You can never decide which emotion to use. You vary between emotions depending on the day, but remember to always try and let joy be the biggest voice.
