Just Get It Out!

There are times when we have strong emotions.

And if you are like me you tend to stuff them.

Either because "you don't have time" to go through them

or you don't want to deal with them.

Its these things that make us like volcanos we stuff and stuff

and those emotions sit dormant until we get hit by one that

heats up all the rest of those stuffed emotions and we blow!

Right now I am learning that I need to cry when I am crying

and just get those emotions out.

Saturday night I got super upset around midnight

(yes I was still awake) because I saw that the Z key on

the keyboard of our netbook was missing.

I got sad, annoyed, angry and depressed. And Michael

and I quickly realized that it was not because of the Z being

missing.

Its because I have stuffed a lot of emotions in order to be flexible

calm and get things done.

I ended up throwing a tantrum and getting mad at God for all of

the things that I can't do anything about. Whether they were

caused by me or not... I yelled at God and cried my eyes out!

I sat tired, depressed and miserable with my tired hubby

looking at me like "what just happened here?"

Volcano Angela erupted, even our dog felt the quakes it caused!

Well I did find the Z and I then realized that God hadn't let that

happen to make me go nuts, but He gave me a way to get all those

emotions out and to teach me that He gave me my emotions so

that I could feel what was going on around me. Not to stuff them

away and explode later.

No it doesn't always feel so nice to be sad or angry, but we

have to choose to feel what we do and get through it.

The best part about that is that we are not alone! He is with

us, He loves us and He will always see us through our trials.
