How to process emotions in a healthy way? Thanksgiving and I think that is it.

 Hi, Happy Thanksgiving! <3 (slowly bringing back those type of 'emojis')

Okay so I purposely picked this prompt because I wanted to ensure that I think about emotions as the next three weeks pass. (meaning that I do not have my next therapy session until Dec 18) (also I am assuming that is indeed in three weeks). 

I am at a loss. I do not know how to begin to process this prompt without brining up what I am learning in therapy which is knowing how to understand how to label them or name them. I think taking 5 seconds to breathe allows me time to sit and reflect. When people start berating me and making me feel rushed to make a decision I get overwhelmed and start shutting down. So if I had to think how to process my emotions maybe take a deep breath for 5-10 seconds and identify an emotion no matter what it is and then speak. One thing I do not do is speak when angry (which I have to stop saying, "I don't get angry" I do get angry I'm human and I need to acknowledge that is okay and that is not a negative emotion. I am not very honest with myself about how I feel and I do not know why that is. So I would like to breathe, I would like to think, I would like to express my emotions without a heat or tension coming over me.

Thanksgiving was ok nothing too special. I will not be elaborating. Seeing my niece and nephew get older is excited yet sad but I am glad I get to witness it. I had therapy last week and a 'homework' which is to write a burn letter about the kind of mother my mom was/is and how I am disappointed in her. These emotions are hard to reckon with but I am here and in therapy to understand them. What else happened this week nothing major. Almost finished the semester, I cannot believe that I graduate grad school next month. I am almost done that philosophy book I am going to read some in the morning and some tonight. I have about 30+ pages left almost. I am happy so I can focus on Incarnate and maybe that Nietzsche book I got. I am always thinking about what subject I want to focus on next and maybe like Sociology and Philosophy will be the two big ones. Additionally, I want to grow my art book collection (I need to start the basics and make sure Afro-Futurism is in the mix). I think that is it for now blog. I am going to attach pictures of the last sunrise and sunset of December 2025 when it comes.

"I am in love with people who are in love with the world." 

P.S I agree with this quote.

P.P.S I hope I continue growing and being.
