What we feel is very important to us. When we hurt emotionally, we need to feel our pain to heal. Sometimes we raise our shields, when we don’t want to face a painful memory, or a painful truth about ourselves.
We need to feel the most, when it’s the most painful. It’s better to let go of painful feelings than to keep them inside us. Emotion is energy in motion. Feelings are like a pocket of air; we need to burp them out.
If we don’t burp them out, the air pocket creates more discomfort. Thus, we becomes more preoccupied with the discomfort and forget about what caused the painful feelings in the first place. Let us be free of painful emotions and move forward.
