The gift of EMOTION

A large part of being alive is feeling emotions. It is a blessing to be aware enough of that which goes on inside us. And having the ability to confront all of our feelings head on and be present with them, is one of the most important gifts we can give to ourselves. All emotions are valuable and can teach us profound lessons if we are willing to see them in this way. Anger shows us what boundaries have been crossed. Grief shows us what we are profoundly attached to. Fear shows us where our deepest doubts live. But these emotions do not define who we are at our essence. We can choose how we react to them. We can choose to feed the dark sides of these emotions that only breed more darkness. Or we can choose to use these emotions as a compass pointing us towards our light. “The best and the most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or touched. They must be felt with the heart.” - Helen Keller Filmed in Cape Town, South Africa. Featuring Craig Makhosi Charnock
