Some people are waking up for work, others are trippin balls.

Empowerment

dextroverted:

We’re always trying to get people to feel better, to look at the bright side. Why? Because, we want to feel better around those that are feeling negative emotions. We’re trying to create harmony. We prefer basking in pure positive emotion. Who doesn’t? When we run up against something unpleasant our instinct is to take care of it. So we start cleaning the gutters. But often time we find ourselves covered in muck.

Observe don’t absorb! Let people feel how they are feeling. If they are in pain, they are entitled to feel it. Don’t invalidate their feelings, don’t try to fix them. It’s not yours and it’s not your responsibility. They need to feel in order to heal. You don’t need them to feel different in order for you to feel different. Make feeling good yourself your priority. That way they can raise their emotions to meet yours and not the other way around.”
