'Cause you can kinda deal with it, and in many cases learn to affect it on a large scale over a long period of time, but probably never ultimately have absolute control of it.

This has primarily been prompted by taking a workshop called "<a href="http://p3southflorida.com" rel="nofollow">Personal Power and Prosperity</a>". It's incredibly transformative. I have the same tendency to interrogate my emotional responses and try to figure them out. And I came to the same conclusion as you during the workshop: that often it's just faster and easier to let it out (appropriately), let yourself feel it, and then it's over. No more introspection required. I find it to be liberating. I can have an emotional response to something, and it doesn't have to be a Big Thing About The Relationshop Or My Parents Or Whatever. It's just a feeling, like weather. I too have been doing a lot of emotional work over the last year. This has primarily been prompted by taking a workshop called “Personal Power and Prosperity“.
