Last nite i saw the ' Big Boss' programme on TV and the interview with KRK was really very interesting. He has been driven out of big boss house due to his violent behavior. AB rightly said that it is very important for us to control our emotions, particularly negative ones. Display of such emotions made us to loose everything. Emotions like Anger, Fear, Guilt, Depression, Resentment, Bitterness, Disappointment, Discouragement, not listening to others view, trying to force your view on others , all are really detrimental to a persons growth.
It is a fact that thousands of years ago we were threatened by wild animals who wanted to eat us. Now we more often feel threatened by other human beings, either psychologically or physically. And due to this we develop such emotions. Among these emotions anger is a very intense emotion. It can be used either in productive or counter-productive ways. It can lengthen or shorten our lives. It is like electricity. It is known that we feel strongly about something. As with every emotion, it has a lesson for us. It can help us become more aware of what we feel strongly about and which emotional needs are important to us. Sometimes we become angry after being provoked. But even in such situation, anger may not be always useful. Sometimes it may frightened your “enemy” but prolong expression of anger may even lead to serious health problems.
Some times we feel alone, lonely, rejected, discouraged, uninspired, used, abused, unproductive, misunderstood, etc. Together, all of these feelings drain our energy, kill our motivation, leading to development of depression. Irony is that depression do not led us to anywhere , in fact make things more complicated. In such situations we should take recourse to meditation and also support of our friends n loved ones including family members.
Lifetime relationships teach us lifetime lessons, our job is to accept the lesson, love the person and put what we have learned to use in other areas of our life. For this we must build a solid emotional foundation.

emotions r there in every person-sometimes positive n humane and sometimes filled with negativity. we experience them all along life due to various situations ,interactions etc.it is neccessary to be emotionally balanced for peaceful personal n social life.BUT it is very difficult to be so always-we all get swayed by external forces which hit us.I think ocassional outburst of emotion is perfectly normal.we should just take care that it doesnot becomes habit. we should also try to cope with all kind of situations, persons, influences as calmly as possible.interaction with people who r close to us ,who give us space to express ourself without being defensive n who like to share feelings with us can help us to develop emotional maturity
.
Solid points agreed, Emotional maturity is ability to stick to a work and to struggle through until it is finished; to give more than is asked for or required; to sized things up and make independent decisions; to defer to time, others persons, and to circumstances.
