You Oughtta be Ashamed of Yourself
In my own experience, all emotions have their root in love or fear. While it may seem binary, I propose that we live in one or the other. That is to say, each moment, each decision will be a choice to endorse love or fear. Unfortunately, many of my moments in life have endorsed fear and my decisions have manifested that in the short term or long run. Like we are inclined to do, I have justified many of these decisions to feel better about them. Fortunately, I'm continuously shown love, which enables me to make decisions in love at times too.

So You Think You want to be A Hoarder?

I asked my family if I would be liable when someone had a heart attack from emotional overload! The post literally had 133 comments in just a few minutes! Were people even reading it at this point? Here is the post:

Optimism-Happy Go Lucky Bulls%*t, or Not?
If you are like me, the first time someone told you to be more optimistic you were probably having a hell of a day, that turned into a nightmarish week, which led to the month of doom. Then some over-energetic sap came along and told you that “you just have to be more positive,” as they skipped their way into their hot yoga class while sipping on a twenty-dollar, imported espresso, cashew fusion milk, latte. If those seven words did anything other than stoke the fires of fury already burning inside of you then you are a better person than I am.

It's okay to feel things.
We as individuals choose different ways of living life, some of us choose to express our feelings while some of us happen to keep them to ourselves and not sharing them with anyone. It doesn’t matter whether you wanna express your feelings or not what matters is you accept them. Feeling things doesn’t make us weak or pathetic rather it makes us human who can understand pain, guilt, happiness, and excitement.

Crying Means Healing, And Healing Means Crying
When was the last time you cried? Write it down—all of it. Write down why you cried and how it made you feel. The last time I cried - you want to know? I'm tearing up right now. And yesterday. And the day before that too.

Five Ways to Positive
Negativity can seep its way into everyday life without warning. Traffic is moving too slow; the Internet went down; an itch that you've been scratching at is still bothering you days later; but, whatever may be happening it's important to remember that there's always ways to stay positive.

Stop Romanticizing Mental Health and Start Helping People with Real Mental Illnesses
Everyday that I get on Facebook, I see a new post from some person saying something like, “Oh, I’m so ADHD because I’m so random, or “I’m so bipolar because of such and such”. There are other posts about things related to other mental illnesses, but these two seem to be the most common. When did it become popular to want to have a mental illness? I, for one, never once signed up for this.

Stop Normalizing Gaslighting. Top Story - January 2021.
It’s good to mold your beliefs into something better, taking advice from an experienced person about anything helps you change your thought process, and you should take plenty of advice from people. Parents help their kids understand things that the kids misunderstand, which involves healthy advisory sessions and seldom involves scolding if their kids don’t obey. This process of molding the wrong belief into something better involves reinforcement and punishment psychology.
