Feelin’ It
How are you today? I’m fine. A question we ask and answer with very little thought or interest in the truth. What would happen if you said how you felt? The older I grow the more sensitive I become. And not only sensitive as in easily offended but I know my body better, my soul and heart speak louder to me. I am extremely self-aware. I pay attention to what my mental, physical and spiritual needs are. Some days I am not fine. On those days I reflect on how I got there. I FEEL IT. I don’t force myself to be ok simply to say I am ok. I actually figure out what is wrong. I don’t dwell but I do discover. We deserve that, right? How do we experience our best days if we don’t even acknowledge or attempt to understand our not-so-great moments? Do yourself a favor and be realer than most. Don’t say you’re fine when you aren’t. Ask for help when you need it. Get what you need out of life. If someone hurts you that is a continuous in your life share that with them in a mature manner to prevent it from happening again. If you have hurt someone but they remain in silence, apologize sincerely and have the uneasy conversation to prevent future hurts. If someone is dope tell them that. It’s so much cooler to compliment than admiring in silence. Feel your emotions, process them and share with those who care. This is what makes us human and alive. Do not ignore or numb. FEEL. #SincerelyJam
