Teimladau o ddicter

           As humans we are prone to a variety of different feelings for a variety of different reasons. These could be personal reasons such as stress or your relationship with others, it could even be a simply be hormonal shifts. Emotions motivate what we do sometimes for the better and sometimes the worse. This is one of the reasons why we should be aware of our feelings, and how they motivate our mood and demeanor towards others!
       
            Today I wanted to take some time to talk about feelings of anger and frustration. We all have these feelings at one point and there is nothing wrong with them! It is letting go of these feelings that can be difficult and challenging for many. Anger is one of our most shallow emotions and is one of our most powerful. When people feel anger, they feel simple aggression towards other people, which can make people dehumanize each other. It is so easy to hold on to anger, and so easy to let it hurt us. When you realize that even anger passes and when you try to see the good in people you lose that aggression and turn it into compassion!

Thanks! Noswaith dda!

Gaf i Siarad?

Well today I was thinking about how people interact with people daily! How much does what one person says affect me? How seriously do I actually take other people? I thought, and then I realized that I weigh things on how important I WANT things to be, where as what the person said could be a simple and plain courtesy in their minds. Then I started to think about how much time I spend thinking about myself, how I look, feel, what I think of other people, even just processing what I'm going to say to people, now that was hard to observe! I often think of what I'll say, what I'll do, what I feel, how I look to other people. Then I realized aren't other people way to focused on themselves? asking themselves the same questions? Wondering what other people think is a waste of time, not only because of it's moral compromise, but also because people don't think about a specific person as much as we make them out to. Sure, we all make judgments, but aren't judgments just a quick way to characterize someone? And why would we want to characterize someone, so we can continue to ask those same questions what do I feel, what will I say, what will I do? And in the end aren't answering those for yourself more important then answering those for someone else?

Just a thought :)
