FEELINGS FOLLOW BEHAVIOUR

Think about breaking up with a boyfriend…you never think about what you are going to say, you act out irrationally and attack that person for no real reason at all. You say things you don’t mean, you say things you never even thought were possible to say and then after everything has happened, this is when you truly feel the rashness of your words and decisions. You then either break down in tears or pack up laughing but no matter what, most people tend to act out before they feel what is truly happening around them.

We as a human race need to learn to sit back, take in the situation in its entirety and then act on what we understand and feel is right. Telling your sibling they are heartless and worth nothing and then only realising later that none of what you said is true and retracting the statement is not enough. The damage is already done. That person has already been hurt and nothing you say or do can take that back.

This is where we need to learn to listen to what people have to say, understand what they are saying, understand what they and you are feeling and then behave accordingly.
