Bad experiences can easily turn a positive perspective into negativity. Avoiding emotions can prolong the healing process because you’ll hold on to the negative and store them deep inside or keep them on the surface. When I wait too long to deal with feelings I become bitter, depressed, and closed minded. When I suppress them they come back to haunt me at inappropriate times. Now I deal with emotions right away. Therefore, it’s easier to kick bad feeling out of my happy heart and hold on to a positive outlook. Never let bad experiences turn your world upside down!

So very true! I know what you mean and am learning to do the same myself. Holding on to the negative can really pollute your way of thinking.
Yup! It’s hard dealing with stuff. Sometimes I find myself falling back into old patterns.
