Question

There are so many things we humans tend to hold back on. We repress a lot of

our emotions, whether they are considered “good‟ or “bad‟ ones. Most

commonly, we have been taught to hold back on our “negative emotions” fear,

anger, sorrow, pain, etc. as a child.

Yet, I now realize that holding back anger or any other emotion affects

negatively the person who is holding back. The anger I refused to let out stayed

locked up inside, fermented, and gave rise to all kinds of poison. Frustrations

and anger were withheld, only to explode when “I’d had enough”. This anger

later had to be released through illness or directed at someone else or self or

through therapy.

Anger manifests itself in the form of headaches, ulcers, cancer, arthritis, and

many other physical ailments.

Of course, we feel that by holding back on expressing our anger we are doing

the right thing and not hurting anyone. We can express ourselves without

destroying the other person’s sense of self-worth or attacking them emotionally,

verbally, or physically.

Expressing our deepest feelings also applies to expressing feelings of love and

appreciation. I have found that at times when I expressed feelings of gratitude

and love to others, they were surprised at the way I saw them. Never assume that the other person knows how much you appreciate them. If you think it and

feel it, then say it.

We can choose to let go of the fear of being wrong, or appearing ridiculous,

etc., and act on our feelings. Be true to yourself. Holding back is only

postponing the truth and can harm the other as well as ourselves. Holding back

is postponing the freedom to be who we really are - loving, truthful children

who desire to be happy and free from negativity.

Negative emotions include sorrow, pain, anger, etc. By holding back these emotions we give rise to all kinds of poisons. These poisons are the diseases we get later in life whose main reason is the tension we are facing for holding back these emotions.
