Today, I crave for that one thing I’m trying to avoid for almost four years. Nicotine. I felt that itchiness in my hand to grab a stick and light it up. It was a feeling that I almost forget and that feeling that I don’t want to feel anymore. Yup but this feeling was so demanding to be felt. It was never a positive thing and never wanted this feeling to be felt. Feelings.
Feelings.
Is define as an emotional state or reaction.
Human beings are given 5 senses and those senses help us to decide on things here on earth. However, I’ve notice ever since my existence as a human being; we decide using our feeling and would end up with irrational decision
I know you gonna tell me. “Grazz, feelings have something to do with sense of touch.” Yeah I get it but I’m referring to the feeling that is more on inside like being sad, happy, irritated etc., I once heard a quote “Pain is demanded to be felt”. Yeah I agree but also other feelings like when you feel lonely, sad, irritated. The good thing feelings are not always negative because we also feel happy, cheerful. It is just that we focus on the negative side.
My today’s craving do you think I will give in?
Now, I want you to think, aside from what you feel what else do you use in decision making? Brain! Yes! On this post I wanted to share that in deciding you suppose to also use your brain. Going back with my today’s craving. I have struggles to quit smoking for four years and today I feel that craving. I have to decide either to give in or not. Now, I have to weigh things should I satisfy my craving and be happy with it or just loss my four years of struggle on one stick of cigarette. Will I follow what I really really want right now or be healthy as I wanted. Today, I choose the latter and it felt good.
