Impulse

We all have our moments. Some of us more than others.

My impulses vary and depend on each situation. They could stem from sadness, feeling trapped, being angry, and even being happy. So I wasn’t really surprised at my reaction today.

I got some interesting news this morning which drew me to react a certain way. I’m not going to get into exactly what I did after hearing this news. It’s completely harmless I assure you. If anything it will move me in a positive direction. It just sucks that this news made me consider it seriously.

My impulses are funny. In reality they’re a kind of escape. They shouldn’t be but they are. If I just stop running from whatever it is that I’m running from at the time I’ll be the better for it.

I need to continue to deal with my sadness and anger head on instead of turning to Jose and his cousins for comfort. Yes, I still do that every now and then. I’ve gotten better.

Look into why I feel trapped. Figure out a way to get out of it in a healthy way.

Stop running. Period.

Impulses when I’m happy I can mark down as being spontaneous. That’s very healthy in my book and I will continue to do that. It’s very good for my soul.

So would you consider yourself a very impulsive person?
