Addictive Emotions Part I


     Anger, love, triumph, and security. Each of these emotions, and a couple more, reach so many areas of our thoughts that a certain euphoria surrounds them. Our minds and our hearts are exercised fully when experiencing these feelings, creating an energy about us that doesn't occur every day. We crave anger. We long for love. We strive for triumph, and we seek security. These natural thirsts affect almost everything we do. 
     Everyone has been at the point where they've been angry about something, but then want to finish and move on.  Yet when one reaches down into one's self, preparing to let go, attempting to forgive and forget, one hits a boundary; the choice between clinging to the rich, satisfying anger or sacrificing the bitterness for peace.  Sometimes peace seems boring, and one feels they have the right to stay bitter and scowl, because it's simply desirable.  It seems human nature has developed a taste for grudges, and it's hard to resist the craving.
     Tons of actions are rooted in the desire for love.  To be loved, to fall in love, to give love.  All a child wants is for their parents to love them.  The only reason romance is popular in entertainment is because a love story identifies  and draws on our own desires, and kittens just flat out demand love from us, and if we secretly want to give them our love, then I guess that's just another reason to get one.  So one really cannot deny love's effect on our actions.     
~ Stay Tuned for Triumph and Security! ~
