A Small Light

Daily writing promptWhat change, big or small, would you like your blog to make in the world?View all responses

Honestly, my hope would be that this blog would cause people to feel empowered, equipped, and better able to manage their emotions so their emotions don’t manage them. I see so many people of all ages who are basically being run by their emotions. My thoughts are that people need language, and this blog provides the space for that.

It provides opportunities to learn, laugh, and hopefully shine a little light on the fact that as a culture and society we are NOT very good about talking about our emotions or recognizing our emotions as the guideposts they are. Our feelings are guideposts that point us to what it is that we believe. Perhaps, if we better knew how to manage these emotions, we would find ourselves in a less reactionary type of society. We would be able to stop, consider, and THEN respond instead of the other way around. People would be able to gather more information about why they are behaving the way that they are.
