On the Home page at emoshuns.com, I'm quoted as saying, "SHUN the mental health labels, SHUN the negatives, SHUN the jacket and embrace your EMOSHUNS." Today's issue of EmoshuNews is about embracing our feelings and emotions.
At 5 o'clock this morning, before the sun came up, I got up, took my supplements, and sat in the kitchen with a cup of coffee. I turned off the lights and looked at the early morning sky and embraced my feeling of loneliness.
Embracing an emotion, regardless of what that emotion is, is something I have learned to do through my own emotional healthcare work. As a younger, less emotionally healthy person, changing the way I was feeling, or denying my emotions, was my habit. Today, things are different. Through tools I was offered by emotional healthcare specialists, and with the help of family and friends, I have come to understand that I am an emotional being and that sitting with my feelings and enjoying the moment is a wonderful experience.
So, there I sat, in the dark, enjoying my loneliness.
But, how can one enjoy loneliness?
For me, loneliness is not the state of being alone because I share my life with people who are very close to me. Family, close friends, colleagues, and acquaintances fill my life with love and companionship. For me, loneliness is an inner sense, an inner feeling that is a part of my very character, my very core that has been with me for as long as I can remember. It is a feeling I get that allows me to feel alone even in a crowd.
And, therefore, because it is a part of me, and here to stay, I have learned to respect my loneliness, welcome my loneliness, and enjoy the moments we share.
