Private

Dear *****,

Do you become depressed after it rains? I'm talking about the kind of rain that brings in gray clouds, along with that dull twilight atmosphere. It's even worse when it's accompanied with thunder & lightning, and when it happens around 5:00 pm, where the day is already turning to dark, and into night. When the rain stops, you go outside and everything feels still, stifled, and paused. When you take a breath the air smells different too, like fresh water or salty seawater breeze. 

It's so gloomy & blue, it becomes nostalgic when I embrace it. It brings me memories of our past, and it clarifies my head.
I get gloomy when I shrug off the chance of meditating in this twilight. If I ponder and embrace this sad blue sight, I feel a strange peace. Such a strange discovery. That peace is penetrated within the walls that surround the palace of my true core. However, it only penetrates the third layer because I built so many. I don't know what I did to myself.

Embracing the way you're feeling ends in a peace within yourself, no matter what the emotion is. Do not shrug it off, do not let it slide, do not stuff it like a tissue. 
Embrace your emotions, but do not do anything stupid when it is overbearing. When you're feeling violent and angry, talk to someone and reach a positive solution. Emotions is one thing, Doing is another.
