Roses

Here grows two roses.

One has very few petals and one has 5 times the other.

No one ever tells either that they are not a “true” rose!

Both are true to themselves.

I am like the rose with many petals. I have emotional range. I can feel more than anger or non-anger.

I used to have 2 emotions,

  1. Anger
  2. OK (as in “I’m OK”)

Yes, I would rush to push out the words because if I took time to think, I may fall apart from really not being OK.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month! Emotional range is a sign of grounded mental health.

I invite you to identify the last time you felt

  1. Disappointed
  2. Calm
  3. Joy filled
  4. Wonder

Let me know what came up for you.

Always on your side,

Indrani
