Are you in control of your emotions, or are you just a slave to them? Are those emotions means to an end for you, or an end unto themselves?
One of the greatest mistakes that we make in our lifetime is forsaking the safeguarding of our mind and our heart, which are the only true companions that heart we get in life.
These two are always with us, whether we want them or not, and they are always trying to help us, one way or another. But as existence has its flaws and its ways, these entities are capable of unhealthy behavior. When not functioning properly, our mind can create all sorts of illusions that trap us in a worldview of madness and decay. When beating abnormally, the heart longs after things that you would otherwise care little about.
We are strange creatures. We take such good care of our bodies, and we are so obsessed with the things that we eat or drink or come in contact with, to the advantage of our health, but we rarely take care or even pay attention to our mind and our heart.
Years and years go by, and when you are self-conscious enough, you begin to realize that your mind has been slowly poisoning your every move and your, giving you pain and suffering for the simplest reasons. Why? Because you had never before even remotely considered the idea of protecting these two instruments against the world that is out there to haunt them.
This is the single greatest mistake in the human life.
Emotions are an important part of what makes us human, but they are also deceitful sensations that can bring us to utter ruin and despair. Do you know when people make mistakes? When faced with a difficult situation, people tend to get emotional, and the gratification of those feelings obscure reason and logic. As a result, rationality dies and yearning takes its place. That is when people make mistakes.
The question is never ‘why’, it is always ‘how’! When you come up against a challenge, you can sit in a corner and complain about the unbearable weight of the life that is relentlessly crushing you, or you could put all these feelings and illusions away and go after the possible solutions that could help your situation. These gruesome feelings grow in the empty shadow of artistic figures and words, but are meaningless when given context and clarity.
Take good care of your mind and your heart. Be wary of the deceit of emotions. Kill the part within you that is always trying to focus on the negativity of the situation and sit idly in despair.
Ask the important questions, and go after the solutions, for the indulgence of these bleak and cruel emotions will make you feel more like a human, but will ultimately destroy your life and your will to go on.
Do not just feel your sorrows and your pains, give meaning and context to them. In the words of Victor Frankl,
“In some ways suffering ceases to be suffering at the moment it finds a meaning.”
I have been working very hard on this blog since the beginning.

I am already grateful to see you giving upvotes to each other and you can see this with the fact that many already have 8, 9, 10 upvotes. But I'm sure that with the effort of all of us we will see a community with, 40, 50, 80 upvotes and for that everyone should get engaged so we can make it come true. I believe and we can! Resteem... ***Remember Community: Please, if you commented on a new post I did, please always go back to the previous one because if someone in the community commented lastly because of time zone differences it will be without your upvote and that would not be fair.

Proverbs 4:23
Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.
Jeremiah 17:9
The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
These Bible verses tell us to guard our hearts. Theologically, the heart is the seat of emotions.
When the hope of the heart deferred, it makes it sick. The emotion will then be affected and it will result in a sad disposition. The mind will play its illusions, seeking to escape the reality rather than to face it. Thus, one's priorities, convictions, standards, and positions will deteriorate when he/she cannot handle the pressure of criticisms and objections. And one's dream is not achieved when a person is swung to the hammock of depression and slept thereby.

Remember the most important is attitude.
Depression takes advantage of those moments when people get carried away by negativity and feelings in times of anguish. It is difficult to channel them, but it is important not to get carried away by these feelings because then depression takes terrain in life.

This is a very relevant discussion as the markets have continued to impact the emotional decisions leading for more selling of valuable assets like Steem and other in the cryptocurrency space! There is very little other explanation for selling something at $0.40 when it was $4 just months ago. Bad decisions are made when emotional as you say as it never is rational but as many say, knowing is half the battle!

In today's lifestyle and working style people don't have time to think about their heart and mind instead they go gym for their physical fitness where as healthy heart and mind is equally important. There is a saying that healthy heart and mind stay in healthy body so healthy body is important. But only healthy body is not enough and we must equally care for our inner health. Positive thoughts and attitude will help us to be healthy by mind and heart. Have a great day @chbartist

I don't know, I'm slave to emotion but I'm not above the emotion as it is a part of human, everyone has emotion, the question is how long does it last, it varies person to person, it may last 5 seconds, one hour, 24 hours or more than that depending on our heart strength. thanks for your creative writing.
Congratulations @chbartist!

waow ..... such an inspiring post !!!! . It is really sad that many people sometimes allow themselves to be driven by their emotions and how other people feel about them forgetting to know that we have the ability to control our emotions and i think ignorance has greatly contributed to this problem but thanks to people like you and this platform too this problem will be an old gist......
Hi. At school they teach us math, chemistry and physics. But they do not teach us to take care of our emotions. And as you say, we do not realize the harmful way we nourish the mind and the heart. Thanks for your post
