“When I'm working, I'm so narrowly focused on sound, language, rhythm, flow, that I rarely feel the emotion of the text. It's only after - long after - I've finished a piece that I can experience in any way its emotional charge.” WayFeelsLongI CanLanguageSoundEmotionPiecesEmotionalFlowFocusedFinishedRhythm Author:Taiye Selasi
“Unless we possess high spiritual qualifications, there is no doubt that the events life throws upon us will give rise to frustration, emotional turmoil, and other distorted states of consciousness. These imperfect states of mind in turn give rise to imperfect activities, and the seeds of suffering are ever planted in a steady flow.” GivingMindStatesSpiritualSufferingTurnsConsciousnessDoubtEventsEmotionalActivityFlowSeedsNo DoubtFrustrationState Of MindSteadyImperfectTurmoilQualificationsStates Of ConsciousnessEmotional Turmoil Book:The Path to Enlightenment Source: The Path to Enlightenment
“Masturbation is not physically necessary. There is already a way by which the male system relieves excessive spermatic fluid quite regularly through the nocturnal emission or wet dream. Monthly menstrual flow expels the female's egg and cleanses the womb. For both sexes, physical or emotional tensions can be released by vigorous activity. Thus, in a biological sense, masturbation for either gender is not necessary. In a gospel sense, it is a sin: Masturbation, a rather common indiscretion, is not approved of the Lord...regardless of what may have been said by others whose 'norms' are lower.” WayMayHas BeensSaidDreamSexSinCommonLordEmotionalActivityFemaleFlowMalesGenderTensionEggsWetNormWombFluidVigorousEmissionsApprovedMasturbationNocturnalWet Dreams Author:Spencer W.

“I am a very emotional human being and would say that I handle emotional pain in a healthy way by always letting it out and not keeping it in. There is no better feeling than allowing those tears to flow when I am feeling emotionally constricted. Crying feels so good sometimes, and I do it when I'm happy, sad, stressed, scared. I like to believe that tears are my friend.” WayFeelsBelieveHumansSometimesFeelingsPainHuman BeingsCryTearsEmotionalHealthyMy FriendsFlowScaredHandleAllowingStressedEmotional Pain Author:Renee Marino
“Now, now," my father said. "Let's just get the bags." This was typical. My father, the lone male in our estrogen-heavy household, had always dealt with any kind of emotional situation or conflict by doing something concrete and specific. Discussion of cramps and heavy flow at the breakfast table? He was up and out the door to change oil on one of our cars. Coming home in tears for reasons you just didn't want to discuss? He'd go make you a grilled cheese, which he'd probably end up eating. Family crisis brewing in a public place? Bags. Get the bags.” WantKindSaidEndsReasonHomeFatherSituationDoorsCarTearsEmotionalConflictEatingFlowCrisisTablesMalesHeavyOilDiscussionBagsComing HomeBreakfastConcreteHouseholdCheeseTypicalLoneBrewingCrampsEstrogenGrilled Cheese Book:Just Listen Source: Just Listen
