Because I’m a psychotherapist, I often deal with people’s strong emotions.
Yesterday, I had many strong emotions, including a good cry when I watched West Side Story.
I have no shame about strong emotions, including sadness, fear, anger, and joy. I accept my strong emotions and allow them to flow through me, leaving room for other reactions.
Do you see strong emotions in my images for today?

On World Gratitude Day (and every other day), I have strong emotions of gratitude for YOU.
we should never be afraid to allow our emotions to flow! X
I have strong emotions about this, my friend!
If you have ever had occasion to cry as if your heart would break – maybe because it has – you perhaps know the feeling of relief that comes afterwards. Sometimes it’s as if a burden has been lifted. Your heart has been broken, but you haven’t. At least that is what I remember.
I cried like that yesterday, Barbara, and yes I felt better. Thanks for your strong comments.
Around this time of year I always revisit Charlotte’s Web, both the book and the animated film even though they both make me very sad. I can understand too why West Side Story makes us feel a whole range of emotions, but especially sadness. On the other hand the movie Orlando, based on Virginia Woolf’s novel, left me sobbing the first time I saw it and I still don’t know why.
I need to watch that, Chris, and I have strong positive emotions about all your comments. Thank you!
I too shed tears watching movies and reading books, too, Ann.
We are not alone, my friend.
