I Want To Be Alone In My Little Cave

Being positive is NOT being perfect. Positive moms experience “negative” feelings and emotions (perhaps even more often than others!!).

I don't want to be alone in my little cave!  MOMtivation - the positive mom blogThe Law of Emotional Choice (Greg Anderson) establishes that we take responsibility for our moods and we actually manage our emotions. It’s about acknowledging our feelings and sorting out which ones serve and which ones don’t, while refusing to get stuck in the latter ones.

I shared a quote on my Facebook page last night  because it gave me great comfort:

 ‎”I know God wouldn’t let anything happen I couldn’t handle. I wish God didn’t trust me so much.”

Even Mother Theresa had her moments… and I’ve been having mine and losing sleep over them, lately. I wished I could be alone in my little cave and only come out after the healing was done.

Acknowledging, admitting, sharing, speaking about our feelings and emotions is painful but freeing. It’s not about having a pity-party, it’s about being connected so we can “Hear counsel, and receive instruction”  to become wise! (Proverbs 19:20)

Mother Theresa didn’t get stuck. She moved forward with determination and got things done! She didn’t hide in a little cave and neither will I.

Interaction is to the soul like oxygen is to the brain. Isolation doesn’t lead to depression; IT IS depression. Whether we are extroverts or introverts; whether we want to interact with thousands, hundreds or just a few people, we all thrive in spirit by being with others, especially others whom we trust and love.

I want to be alone… and then I think it through. I DON’T want to be STUCK alone in my little cave. It’s cold and miserable there. I choose to go forward, I choose to push through, I choose to grow, I choose to be happy.

GREAT POST -Emotions are Energy in Motion. Where focus goes energy flows. Acknowledging our emotions is like checking our flow. If we don't check our flow, how can we know whether we are moving in the direction of our choosing. We should endeavor always to not just go through life but to grow through life. Choice is Power!
