EMOTIONAL ENSLAVEMENT
By: Adebisi Isaac
Life might be very hard on us, events and occurrences that happen might storm our happiness and turn our moments of joy to sadness. Even at that, our friends, companions and relatives might become our circumstantial foes. Thus, making it seem as if, the whole universe is in a battle, aimed at defeating us.
At about 6:30pm, she walked in with her luggage looking very depressed and bittered, having left her matrimonial home to her parents resident. Her mum was very surprised to see her return home, because not quit long she bided her goodbye after receiving 2 days treatment from her elder sister.
Obviously, with the look she wore on her face all seem not to be alright. She sat down in the leaving room while her luggage were taken in. However, her mum then asked her of the reason behind her sudden return, and she swung into explanation, her hubby wasn’t happy to have seen her returned, rather he rebuked her for spending a night before she returned.
Contrarily, instead of him to commend and appreciate her efforts in sought for means in healing herself, he was saucy and left her in the house and went out. For that, she was left with no choice than to pack some of clothes and flee back to her parents’ house. Her mum, however condemned her decision and action. Being shocked again by her mum’s comment, tears was gushing out of her eyes and still being persistent by trying to tell her mum of the recent ill-characters her hubby has been exhibiting which have been hurting her.
Undisputedly, it’s a normal phenomenon as time unfolds and the world turtles to and fro from time past till now and from one generation unto another. That, the innate desire of human race is to always have her wants being met and to experience a lovable world; to receive support by the surrounding matters (both living and non-living).
However, what will happen if all of this seizes to manifest? Just as the ladies’ expectation of having a lovable and appreciative hubby was caught short. Result fully, making her react badly and forgetting that two wrongs can’t make a right. Pressure was mounted on her, her emotion took charged; she wouldn’t reason at all. This is called the Emotional enslavement.
Life failure of meeting our desire leads to pressure on our inner being, we become irritated by environment and often frustrated to do things that isn’t expected. Also, being submissive to the raging forces of life, either animate or inanimate is what we need to avoid. Apparently, in our pursuit to earn a living or manage our relationship affairs, challenges will always come our way in what ever way or kind. So, it’s good to know that our ability to over come them is never determined by intellect alone but our ability to control our emotions.
Being emotionally strong is very important for anyone that wants to excel on this globe, and growing to become your dream desire person, as in, experiencing fruitfulness, lovable relationship with any with strong focus and purpose is guaranteed.
Contractively, anyone who fails to be emotionally strong will be emotionally weak. And by this, any provoking incident will always hurt his or her feelings. Then, lost of focus and purpose will be the order of day.
On this ethical facet, just as the lady have had the ill-experience of life which she could not control. She was emotionally disturbed and it nailed her attitude. Of course, same thing can happen to anyone. The emotional enslavement is what I call it. The emotional enslavement is a virus plague in human system, that one’s it surfaces we tend to lose control of everything, even ourselves.
This could occur in different faces of life with the following as its stimulating agents:
– Lost of ones capital or business
– Lost of ones parent, siblings, partner or friends
– Disappointment from one parent, siblings, partner or friends
– Failure of any kind, etc.
Remember, our vision mustn’t be witered for any reason, and triumphing is nothing but a must for us.
How to overcome emotional enslavement
– Evil thoughts will always come but you
– Must never allow it have its way. Only with confidence and happy mind you’ll excel
– Think positive, never let your emotions control you
– learn how to forgive
– On no occasion most you react quickly to your inner-hurt
– Never, never consent to the evil dictates of life or loss focus.
