i am. justified

my roommate (who clearly has been a massive inspo for my posts lately) came home upset one night. she had this incident with her boyfriend the night before, and asked me for advice. i won’t go into details and expose her mans, but there was one thing in our conversation that struck me. she said “i feel like me being upset about this has surpassed its quota.”

i was listening to a song called ace of cups (by LSDREAM, if you wanna give it a listen), and it says “when you are not afraid of feeling, and you move past judgement, and allow yourself to feel all the ways you feel, you will have a tremendous breakthrough. you must learn to love your emotions,” & shiz got me thinking.

who the frick should ever tell you that your emotions aren’t justified? why do we think that we can only be upset for so long? why do we feel like we should/shouldn’t feel a certain way about something? why would we ever let someone tell us what our emotions are or when to feel a certain way, when god knows that we can’t control those stupid things.

you will never see me apologize about being sad, or happy, or angry, or tense, or blah blah blah, because i’m sure that if it’s a negative emotion, i don’t want it either. & i don’t think anyone should apologize, either.
