“As long as you live, you will be
subject to change, whether you will it or not - now glad, now sorrowful; now
pleased, now displeased; now devout, now undevout; now vigorous, now slothful;
now gloomy, now merry. But a wise man who is well taught in spiritual labor
stands unshaken in all such things, and heeds little what he feels, or from
what side the wind of instability blows.”
― The Imitation of Christ,
By Thomas à Kempis.
In today’s world because of all uncertainty going on because of the
covid19pandemic, life of many people has turned upside down and some have lost
their life.
We may be in prayer from few months or few years we are all going through
different types of emotions in our life and not a single person can stay out of
the emotions for all their life.
We all because of being in different situations in our life along with it
our emotions change, In some cases positive emotions and in some cases negative
emotions.
For example when a jobless person gets an appointment letter he cannot
sit and cry but will be happy in the same way when a person loses his job he
will not be happy but will become sad.
When we lose one of the loved ones in our life we will not laugh and
celebrate in the same way when one of the new member of our family is born we
will not sit and cry but we will be happy and celebrate.
We have to understand that these are the raw emotions every person
possesses but when we recite the Word of God everyday with confidence then
surely we can become mature in our emotions to some extent. No one can control
emotions 100%, if they do then they will be as good as dead. Every living
person has a soul and every soul has emotions so that we may express ourselves
in different situations.
If we do not feel the pain of others then we are insensitive and also
sometimes we are dishonest with ourselves. We all feel the pain but when ego
comes in between we try to hide from others to show them that we are strong but
in reality we will be the weakest.
When Holy Spirit touches us powerfully no matter how strong is that
person tears will flow. Let us be honest with ourselves and do not put up fake
appearances to please others because by doing that we are going to hurt
ourselves more and it will not benefit us.
