feelings
July 14th 2008 @ 12:01 am things

I found out hat when we try to express our feelings we accuse somebody/something outside of us, instead of looking inside.  Strange, isn’t it? As if we not really want to heal the problem.  We rather say :”I feel like left alone” instead of : “I feel lonely”.  Here a list of ‘feelings’ to brighten up your vocabulary …

Why” does not describe a feeling. It explains the circumstance that causes the feeling. “I feel good because…” is not a description, it’s an explanation. “I feel as good as the time you brought me flowers” is a description. Sometimes you can identify a feeling by relating the sensation to a particular part of the body, i.e., gut feelings felt in the stomach (nausea, that butterfly feeling): an ache in the throat with longing; pounding heart with fright. If you can substitute “I am” for “I feel“, you have expressed a feeling. If you can substitute “I think” for “I feel“, you have expressed a thought or a judgment.
