GOOD EVENING!

I was working with a wonderful realtor this afternoon inspecting a condo for a very nice couple.

All of a sudden we started talking about some very emotional ideas and she became a little "faclempted". Don't worry if you don't know this word, it means chocked up, misty or some close equivalent. She started to apologize and I stopped her and said why are you sorry, no need to excuse yourself in front of me. I tried to assure her that I have been around my fair share of "in the moment" women and that expressing herself or even better, not holding it in was not only ok, it is was the healthy thing to do.

The point I was getting at, is that we, I mean all of us, often make excuses for our behavior. When what we should be doing is the opposite, and in this I just mean, if we let our true selves out for more than just an occasional "spiritual walk"we would all feel a heck of alot better. Imagine if you will, a typically stressful day, and all you want to do is yell at the gods and get it all off your collective chests. Well, since you can't go about screaming in the middle of your office or in court, then there must be a place you can. It is so simple, you don't have to go anywhere, you just have to go to yourself. This takes a bit of practice, but with a little bit of time, you will be able to let off steam, scream or cry all without anyone or with everyone knowing. It is up to you, you make the call. Share or not to share, just let those feelings take you where you have to go.

There has to be a reason you need a release, it makes no difference what the reason, just the fact that you are reaching out emotionally is enough of a reason. So the choice is yours, leave it buried deep inside, or let it come to the surface when you decide, you make the call, the control is in your hands and heart. As your soul speaks so you respond, as you need so you will travel this road.

So the next time the feeling bubbles up to the surface, let it come, let it come with all the force you can muster. Embrace, acknowledge it and then let it go!

Have a joyful evening,
Robb
