The Fragility of Human Emotions
How transformative would it be if every time a human hurt the feelings of another they could see the emotional pain physically reveal itself. Like getting a glimpse into the hardening of a loving heart, or witnessing the release of a single blood tear from a child’s eye. Maybe the pain would show up as a temporary change in skin color…red or yellow?
What if we could no longer hide the grief or sorrow; and no one could get away with insensitivity, cruelty or abuse as a result? Would we not transcend cruelty as a race and be forced to evolve towards a kinder, more sensitive existence…
So much of this already exists in the way we cry when we grieve, raise our voices when we are hurt, and blush when we are humiliated. It shows in the defense mechanisms we develop which simultaneously shuts out the good while minimally dulling the emotional pain.
When we evolve our ability to see the consequences of our actions our sensitivity increases. We see more, we feel more, we hear more and we can not help but to care more. This growth in sensitivity and caring is good, it is part of the evolutionary road towards trancendence. Yet many fight this process because initially it feels uncomfortable and they believe they are getting “soft” or worse they think it’s a sign of “weekness.”
Nothing can be further from the truth! Growth in sensitivity and caring does lead to feelings of vulnerability but this growth equates with strenghth and great power. It is only through this path that you accomplish your soul’s purpose and open yourself up to the abundant gifts of life!
