NO ONE CAN MAKE YOU FEEL THE WAY YOU DO NOT WANT TO FEEL

Other people can make us “feel bad” but only if we let them. We retain control over our feelings, thoughts, and emotions. They are ours. If we feel a certain way, “sad,” “happy”, “angry”, it is because we choose to feel that way. People may do things all the time that affect us, how we react to those things or “feel” about them is up to us. We can experience whatever feelings bubble up to the surface, then let them go or re-channel those feelings into something productive. Put a different label on them. Soak them in. Savor it. Feel them. Then let it let it go. We control how we feel, so why make ourselves feel miserable, angry, upset or any way we really do not want to feel inside? We can feel certain emotions because of our own actions, regret, guilt, remorse, pride, joy, satisfaction. We can share those feelings with others. No one else has the right or the power to make us feel anything we do not want to feel. That is our power.
