Envy, hate, contempt, arrogance, insecurity, grief, anger, loving the wrong person, loving the right person at the wrong moment. It can go on forever.
What can we do when we can't help but have such feelings? Fight them? Ignore them? Accept them as part of our self?
It's easy to split the world in good and evil when you have never been tempted or acted on the edge. But when suddenly you are overwhelmed by the strength of a forbidden feeling, anything else, any concept of right and wrong becomes obsolete and useless.
Which makes me wonder: Can we put borders on what we feel? Or would that mean that we would keep our souls outside these borders?

why fight and ignore your feelings...what good does that do?....a world is never black and white it has many shades of gray...if we are overwhelmed by those feeling that means that they are the right feelings and that does not make them wrong feelings...we should never put borders on our feelings ....
I'm just a dreamer, I dream my life away...Know the song?
I agree with everything but this: the world doesn't have merely shades of gray, it has many many colors. So many, that it is always surprising and new, no matter how much you think you know it already.
But then - what if our feelings will hurt some other person? Where do we put those?
....Screw it, there are no borders on feelings anyway :-)))...
since I have excluded the word "boundary" from my vocabulary, the world seems to be more coherent :))))
Boundary? Ce-i aia?
Call me a dreamer, but i think coherence is virtue of sober persons. As for me, at least today, I prefer watching the world through the eyes of a drunk :-)). Too much trouble in the world...
Ratiune si simtire... eternul conflict...
Ceva nou?
Stii ce face sentimentele noastre originale si frumoase, chiar daca au mai fost simtite de un milion de ori inainte?
Sunt ale noastre.
La fel si gandurile.
Poate vei intelege cand o sa cresti mare.
