Waves of emotion
Waves of Emotion
When you are identified with "me and my story", you believe that outside circumstances cause your emotions to change. For example, if someone does something that you either love or hate, you feel either happy or angry. This translates that if you are happy, somebody can take it away and if you are angry, someone else should fix it.
By surrendering your true power in this manner, you helplessly ride the waves of emotion, as they endlessly rise and fall. You remain subject to the merciless push and pull of human emotion.
At first glance, you begin realizing that your conditioned attitudes about past situations are conditionally linked to certain present emotions. Based on past experience, conditioned linkage is the actual cause of your emotional storms.
You cannot learn the Truth of Being, however you can learn how you deny this Truth, through self-observation.
