Yung Pueblo: “Feeling without fueling. Emotional maturity is what happens when you can feel your heavy emotions without letting them take total control over your actions. Recognizing when your emotions are clouding your perspective and simultaneously not allowing yourself to make big decisions when your mind feels unclear is going to help your future self. This is especially helpful during challenging arguments, because it helps you feel the truth of your emotions without sliding into just making the argument worse because you don’t like how you feel. Having a sense of balance, where you honor the truth of your hurt, but you are also actively finding pathways to resolve the argument, is challenging but not impossible.”
