“ She made me unhappy!”
What does this even mean?
Do we ever think about this?
When you hear the words “They hurt me!”
or “They made me unhappy!”
You instantly agree with this.
You think about all the times when somebody in your life hurt you.
But do you ever think about what that means?
What does it mean when someone hurt you?
Did they beat you up? That’s bad and I don’t condone that.
But more often than not, violence is not involved.
There is a different type of torture we humans like to play on each other unconsciously.
The psychological torture.
When you say someone has hurt you…
….What does the hurt look like? What is the face of the hurt?
IS IT AN EMOTION?
Sure, you do feel something. But if you never gave it a name, how could you say for certain its the feeling of unhappiness or hurt?
IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE?!
There is a lot of THOUGHT!
Thought is what creates our emotions. We build a narrative, tell a story, try to justify or condemn. The content of thought does not matter because 99.9% of thought is useless. Using your mind to solve complex problems does not require thought.
Your feelings of unhappiness was all just a smokescreen created by the mind to keep you trapped in thought.
