RE: "Amateur human being" - my presentation on Steemit [ENG]

in #introduceyourself7 years ago (edited)

Thank you for sharing more of yourself in this post. there was so much in here I could relate too so just know you are not alone.

I think when you feel so deep you open yourself up to all the emotions good and bad. You need to find a way to shield yourself from those emotions sometimes. you can get hurt more than one should.
I for one am so happy you joined Steemit as I love your stories and posts. I learn a lot from you and that makes my day. I hope you keep sharing in a way you are comfortable.
I too go slow, I don't have the energy to go fast. lol but I'm having fun without wearing myself out and that I think is the key.

Oh and NEVER, EVER take English advice from me! :D

Thank you very much for your sincere and passionate comment, Snook. You're so sweet!
I used to shield myself from emotions, my shield is black humor and sarcasm, but now I let them flow more...sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bad, but one thing I learned from yoga classes (Yes, another of my many dabblings in something...) is: "nothing is under control, relax!" :D

PS. For the English: if you keep understanding what I write, I'm happy with that! :)

PPS: I had to edit the comment because my phone keeps auto-correcting what I write substituting English words with Italian ones

funny you should mention yoga! when I wrote that I was thinking about a YOGA class I took with Dr. Maung Gyi One of the things he taught was how to build a wall of energy around you so your body could rest from all others emotions dragging you down.
It's good to feel!! with that I do agree but for me, sometimes, you can feel too much and need a rest.

Very interesting! Perhaps there are different relaxation techniques...my yoga teacher used to tell me to let all the emotions and thoughts flow outside with the expiration, without trying to hold back, then look at them with detachment and let them go ;)
