Embrace your feelings

Welcome the way you feel, for there is authentic life in your feeling. Treasure the feelings as they change from one day to the next, in this situation and that.

Rather than hiding from your feelings or casting judgment on them, experience them. Let them instruct you, prepare you, and draw you deeper into the reality of existence.

Feel the warm sun, the cold wind, the pleasure, the pain, the satisfaction and disappointment. Allow each feeling to come in its time, to go when it is done, to be replaced with another.

What you are feeling now is adding to the richness of who you are. In due time, another feeling is sure to bring even more insight, wisdom, awareness, and experience.

Some feelings you seek to have more of, and others you’d rather avoid. Yet each one that arises gives you the opportunity to be your best, most genuine, creative, effective self.

That’s always an opportunity worth living to the fullest. Embrace your feelings, accept their gifts, rise to their challenges, and harvest the richness they all can bring.
