The emotions that you experience every day can be harmful and helpful at the same time. When your emotions are harmful, you tend to be in a bad mood for that day and perhaps longer. When you emotions are helpful, you tend to be in a good mood. Your moods will change according to how your emotions treat you for that day. I have found that it is possible to be in no one mood because the emotions that you are feeling have you feeling like you are in neutral.
The emotions that you feel can make you stronger or weaker than other people, just depending on the type of emotions that you experience and how strong those emotions are. Your emotions can make you stronger than other people when you are able to express the emotions that keep you happier than other people. Your emotions can also give you extra strength through adrenaline if you express negative emotions for some reason. Your emotions can make you weaker than most people for the same reasons because for every positive there is always an equal negative.
When people ignore his/her emotions when deciding on his/her life, he/she is causing himself/herself to be weaker than most people. The reason is because he/she cannot use his/her emotions for a decision. When your emotions are trying to help you decide something, you need to listen. Your emotions are usually there to help you realize the right decision, and by ignoring your emotions you are ignoring what your soul has to say. People do not realize how much your soul does communicate to you.
Your emotions help you in life. When you have the ability to feel an emotion, your soul is trying to guide you with that emotion. This is helpful when dealing with people that give you the "creeps". When a person has this type of feeling, your soul is telling you to stay away from this person. When there is any doubt about a person, your soul is trying to show you that there is something more to the situation. This happens a lot because there are a lot of people in the world that you should stay away from, and hopefully you are communicating with your soul enough to have it warn you about these people.
When your emotions become torn for a situation, it can be difficult to decide the right way to go. When your emotions are torn about something, your soul is telling you that it isn't sure what to do. Your soul is telling you that there is no right answer for the situation, and it is up to you what to do. This can be difficult at times, especially when you are caught between friends. When deciding a side to support in a fight between friends, your soul may not be able to decide which side to go for. This will cause you to be emotional torn between those friends. The only thing to do in a case like this, if you can, is to stay neutral and try to make peace for them through you.
When it is impossible to stay neutral in a fight between friends, to decide the right side could take some time. I know this because I have gone through this recently. I have been forced to choose sides between long time friends and current ones. My decision has been difficult to me, however I have decided which side to go on. My decision will shock many people because I am usually predictable with stuff like this. Usually I will look at which friends that I have the longest friendship with, and side with him/her. This decision was determined in a different way. This decision was determined between what is right and what is wrong. I have decided to stand up against the friends that I have had the longest.
When your soul is torn in two different directions, your emotions cannot decide which way to go. This is when your head & heart need to come to a decision. I have always tried to do what I felt was right, and this time is no different. In the past I was depressed so I could only decide between the loyalties that I had with people, and what was right and wrong. This time I had to decide without the emotions because I couldn't decide through the emotions. I will do whatever is in my power to make things right between the two groups of friends, even if I have to threaten one set of them.
It is rare to have me threaten anyone about anything. I have always been able to sort through any problems that have come up between my friends and myself. This time it dealt with the attitude of prejudice towards my other friends. Where prejudice is wrong to feel, I have decided to fight against it. Where I have chosen the side that is right, I will be threatening the other side. The threat that I will be doing to the other side, which is the perfect defense in a situation like this, is to threaten the friendship between them and me. Where they are being prejudice towards the second side, I will threaten them by forcing them to choose between two things, just as they did to me. I will force them to decide between the friendships with me vs. the prejudice against the other side.
I will not allow them to be neutral on this type of decision because you can't. It is a simple question to decide to have hatred towards someone or to keep a friendship that has been around for a long time. There is no middle to this situation, and I will not back down on this one. So the threat that I will be issuing will be to have them decide whether they treasure my friendship more than the prejudice that they feel. This is the only way that I can see to cause them to see what is wrong with his/her actions. Unfortunately I am unable to issue this threat for at least 2 more months because my family wants me to "keep the peace" for a little longer. I will do this as long as they do not do anything to provoke me to say the threat.
In my mind, to be prejudice is just another way to show how much you haven't matured as the world moves on. When you are prejudice against anyone regardless of the circumstances, you are being unfair to that person. The world has a lot of prejudicial things within it that have yet to be conquered. With this being known, the world has to grow up and put those differences aside to grow into something better.
I have friends that have been prejudice against one other friend because of the past of the person. After having a verbal attack done to me a week ago by a friend, I have gone to other friends to find out his/her opinion about the friendship with the other friend. I have found out that there are many people that would like to see me not to be around this specific friend. I have also found a friend or two that do not have any problems with the friendship, however would like me to keep my eyes open during the friendship. This just means that these friends want me to be happy and not get hurt by the other friend.
I am prepared to give the friends that I have that believe that the friendship with a specific other friend should end, to give those people an ultimatum. This ultimatum will either show me who my friends really are, or show me how who cares about hating others through prejudice. The ultimatum will have them decide to either have my friendship or to have the prejudicial issues with my specific friend. I have prepared myself for this for the past two weeks, however I have been told by certain others to not say anything yet.
It will take a lot of effort on my part to "keep the peace" for the amount of time I have been told is required, currently. I will "keep the peace" as long as there are no more attacks against the specific friend or me. The specific friend has had a "raw deal" in life, and this type of prejudice is not necessary. The prejudice that has been used against him/her is wrong and I will stand up for this person. I will stand up against anything like prejudicial things because it is the right thing to do. In the past I have stood up against others that I felt needed to be stood up to (bullies), and got the "shit kicked out of me". I kept on standing up for others and myself when the time was necessary, however I have never needed to fight against prejudice before.
In school I gained a lot of respect from other people where I stood up against people needed to have that done to. Every person that I stood up to in school did win in physical fights, however lost in popularity. When a person that will not fight offensively is in a fight, regardless of the outcome, the aggressor will lose in the end. After time I had enough respect from people to have those people stand by me, regardless of the aggressor, and be able to force that aggressor to lose the fight. Some may call that pity that those people showed, however I call it respect. I say this because the people would stand by me regardless of the situation. With pity, the people will only stand up with you when he/she feels that it is necessary to help out.
I have been a friend to many of the people that believe that the specific friendship is wrong, for a long time. I have never had any real reason to go against him/her over anything in the past. Meanwhile he/she was having these prejudicial things against someone and I didn't see it. I didn't see it because I was never around this specific person during the time that it started. Now that I have the friendship, and know about the past from the start, I have been introduced to the prejudice that exists. I know that I can stop this prejudice because I am very persistent when I need to be. My persistence will be the way that the prejudice stops.
The prejudice will stop because I will have the ultimatum that I know that everyone will be shocked for me to say. I will not stand by any friend that has prejudice against any of my other friends. I will not stand by and allow such cruelty to exist, and will sacrifice anything (reasonable) to end it. I know that these friends want the friendship to end with the specific person, however I will not end it. I am closer to the specific friend than I am with anyone else, combined. I will however sacrifice the friendship with those whom are prejudice because I don't want that type of thing around me. I will have those friends decide which that he/she would prefer.
I also know that many people wouldn't be so reckless with ultimatums as this, however this shows how I feel. This shows how strongly I feel against prejudice, and will stand up to it; no matter the cost. This may sound bad, but it is necessary.
