#26.- Expressing emotions

When I was a child, I wasn't educated to express emotions. I was closed and cold as an stone in the middle of a mountain in the harsh winter.
I thought that expressing emotions publicly was a symptom of weakness and a lack of strenght.
But in fact, hide sentimento is a bomb with an unknown countdown: sooner or later will explode a will take everything that it has in front. The damage can be irreversible!
Expressing emotions is not an easy thing, but starting is much better than do nothing.
Sometimes the little teachers are the biggest ones. My son showed and remembered me how important it is. And throught his draw I saw that something is changing because if he is able to express his emotions means that he has learned something of this at home.
Even expressing emotions can be a creative moment and a way to grow. Retaining your emotions stop you from advance and going so far.
Express your emotions with words, with pictures or talking quietly. You'll feel better!
