The Reason You Couldn't Feel Emotions
Emotion, the Language You Have Long Forgotten
You have always lived well.
Without problems, without mistakes, with a cool head.
You lived perfectly within the roles given to you,
And thanks to that, you've reached where you are today.
Your emotions had to be put on 'hold' for a long time.
Instead of feeling emotions,
You had to make accurate judgments,
Instead of expressing emotions,
You had to control the situation.
That might be why.
Why you suddenly have these thoughts,
Even though there's no crisis at all right now.
"Why do I feel so numb?"
"Why don't I feel overwhelmed even when something joyful happens?"
There is nothing wrong with you.
In fact, because you've lived so well for so long,
Your emotions inevitably had to pause for a while.
The more you suppress emotions, the duller they become.
Because you had to think instead of feel,
Because you had to endure instead of waver,
Emotions simply became a distant sensation.
Now is the time
To slowly call those emotions back.
To realize that feeling is not weakness,
And now, it's your turn to give yourself that permission.
