Stereotype Remix: Creating your own MEME

 

In the past 5 years, I was suppressing my emotions. Showing emotions or being sensitive is also viewed as weakness by society. People are told to restrain their emotions from a young age. For example, parents will tell their kids not to cry when they feel sad.

The reason for this phenomenon is that usually the people who seem less easy to be touched or moved are more likely to reach greatness. This opinion also appeared in ancient Chinese poems: “不以物喜不以己悲(No being pleased by external gains, no being saddened by personal losses).”

However, I found I missed something. when I restrained my expression of emotions, I also felt less. Inhibiting feelings makes people numb to life instead causes to success. Whats’s more, emotions are not the obstruct of being success, but the passion that push you forward. 

By seeing my meme, people will feel more confident and comfortable when showing their emotions. They will know this is a nature thing to feel things more deeply.
