As people, it’s unrealistic to expect ourselves to be happy all the time.
We are human, and we are complex.
We are meant to experience emotions beyond happiness, and each one has a purpose in shaping us.
In Inside Out, Sadness was made to feel like an irrelevant emotion, but she ultimately played an important role in helping Riley reconnect with her parents and express what she was truly feeling.
Anger can push us to stand up for ourselves or defend someone who needs it.
Fear can motivate us to step outside of our comfort zone and pursue something more, even when we’re uncertain of what’s ahead.
Every emotion has its place.
So, don’t suppress the emotions you consider “negative” just to maintain happiness.
You don’t have to be positive all the time to be okay.
You’re human. And sometimes, being human means feeling it all.
Keep in mind we can feel our emotions without letting them control us or hurt others.
