Need for Negativity!
World war 2 ended on 2nd September 1945. After world war ended, back in India when people were still struggling with new independence and separation, this encumber of restlessness gave rise to new moment of
peace and non-violence. Apart from these ideas, one idea of Positivity
crawl the wall and entered India. This idea of Positivity has reach
every aspect of life and we are still dealing with its counter effect.
In simple words, Positivity says that we wink at anything other than
positivity. Basically turning blind eye to cynicism. We've been fed this
"Be-positive- and-feel-positive" lines so much that we fail to think of
questioning it's viability. We fail to question it's roots.
If you think this piece of blog is for attacking or disarming
positivity entirely then I am at guilt of faulty communication and you
of selective reading. As my title suggests, this blog is more about
'Negative' aspect of ideas and to start at it, the best way is to create
need for it. We got used to seeing silver lining of clouds so much that
we've lost entire insight of sky altogether. We constantly suppress
negative emotions and by chance we experience anyone of them, we make
sure to brush them off the shoulder border like a dust. Normal negative
emotions are considered as sign of weakness. We are constantly at war of
normal emotions. We keep vanquishing negative emotions so much that
we've stopped carring about finding solution to it. We stopped feeling
them long before we can know it's importance. We're so used to crying
behind doors that somehow we have lost touch of vulnerability and real
human conversation. Research on emotional suppression shows that the
emotions which are suppress only grows stronger, leading to
uncontrollable fall out emotions. Vulnerability is a carpet on which
relationships are made, full of emotional support and compassion. It's
time to feel our pain. Pain has value. Pain and mental illness is not
the same. It's not and it's vital we understand them. Pain gives us
strength on other hand mental illness sucks our energy out. Never let
your pain goes to waste!
Negative emotions
should be considered as a platform to overcome glitches and voids.
Should be considered as an opportunity to stimulate your thinking in
finding solution. Negative thinking is as important as positive
thinking. If positive thinking can created Aeroplane, Negative thinking
created Parachute! Just like excess of positive thinking gave rise to
suppression of emotions, excess of negative thinking give rise to
pessimism.
