Storage

How many times have you said I'll deal with it later? How many times have you been upset and pushed your feelings aside and said you'll deal with them later? How many times has someone mistreated, offended, or hurt you and you said I'll talk to them later about it? When later comes do you proceed to address the feelings you put aside or do you let them build up? When we make a pattern out of saying we'll deal with it later we actually harm ourselves as we suppress our feelings and don't address our current issues. We can make many excuses as to why we couldn't address it that day or the next, and we reason that we're over it when the fact is that we are not. We build up our issues and then wonder why we become extremely tired, have a cold we can't get rid of, moody, restless, have a loss of appetite or have an increase in appetite, become unenergetic, and even upset with no identification of the reason or source. These are just some of the ways that we cause harm and conflict within that impacts our daily living. Yes, there are times when we need to address things later as it may not be the appropriate time to or place, however when the moment presents itself do we proceed? Do we neglect to inform others that we need to discuss things with them and schedule to talk about our issues or concerns or do we wait on someone else to magically know how we feel? Thus, starts the process of building within us negative feelings, and a negative perspective. We may see the person and think they owe us an apology and become standoffish or practice avoidance. We may think negative thoughts about the person and spread untruths or share what we learned in confidence. There are a multitude of ways that we allow pent up feelings to cause us to act out as we believe someone has done us wrong in some way although we haven't approached the person about the issue so how would they know. We then place someone else at fault for our feelings when the reality is we are the ones causing ourselves harm by suppressing our feelings, and behaving or speaking negatively about others who aren't aware that we felt hurt or offended by their actions or words. Don't store your feelings away as if they don't have relevance. Don't make it a habit to postpone what can be done today. Communicate with others instead of harboring ill feelings or spreading gossip. When you withhold your feelings and act as if you have moved on and are "okay" with the situation your actions and words will show you if that's true. The way you feel can impact your health. There's a reason people say they feel good after getting something off their chest. What have you been suppressing? Is it time to release appropriately and validate your feelings?

Peace, Blessings, Love and Light
