Today there was a young girl who was in a disturbing situation. In trying to help her I asked for assistance. The response that I received made me sick. I was told that they had to make light of the situation, otherwise it would be disturbing to them. I just want it said, that if someone is in a sick situation and it is disturbing to you, then your mind is saying that an action needs to be taken. You don’t just shut it out and make a joke of the situation, so you can handle it. To have emotional intelligence, you need to use the emotions you are given for what they are for. Take the time to filter the flow to the true emotion and respond to that. Meaning apply yourself to that action for the emotion. Don’t stuff or evade the emotion by placing another one over it. That is extremely unhealthy and aggravating to those around you. Live in truth and not hidden behind costumes!
