Not Always Burning

Not every single feeling has to break you apart.

It seems that, for some persons, every single thing they feel, has got to be something magnificent, an explosion that paints the whole world with one-thousand different colors. If they do actually feel every single thing with such intensity, there’s nothing wrong with that.

But actually, there is something quite wrong with believing that if a person doesn’t feel every single thing like a nuclear explosion, then they must be dead inside to a certain degree.

Not every person feels the same things the same way, as there is no rule of gold about nobody’s emotions. So, it is absurd to criticize someone for not exploding into intense waves of feelings, for maybe, that is just the way they express what lives inside their hearts.

I know there is a bunch of people who say that there is nothing worse in the world than the people who are like “lukewarm water”, meaning someone not being used to having self-destructive bouts of emotion, and honestly, I cannot help chuckling a bit at their reactions caused by calmer people. Are they trying to rip people apart, only for not being overly emotional like them? For me, that doesn't sound very healthy.

Maybe, for some, it would be better to realize as soon as possible that indeed, life is quite an intense ride, but not everybody chooses to make theirs.
