Feelings

“Feelings were never meant to be owned. For example, you may be happy now because someone did something for you that made your day, but you won’t own that happy feeling forever just because someone did that for you today. It isn’t because you were not satisfied, but you didn’t learn then.

If I had to put it, I’d say feelings are more like experiences. To truly understand a feeling, you have to learn from it, grow with it. Perhaps learning why or what really made you happy today may let you cherish and keep the happiness with you longer. Was it because of the effort? Or simply because it was someone ‘special’? Either way, if all you did was just try to own that happiness, you will never find it back. But if you’d try to learn from it, every time you look back at that person; you smile, because you are reminded of everything they did for you.

Maybe feelings are the true lessons in life.”
