A Rush of Crud to the Head

Here's a thought everyone can relate to.

How many people do you know - intimately - who often allow their emotions to completely control them?

Now, we all do this from time to time, but there are always a few people who I describe as "Body Junkies". This term refers to people who derive immense pleasure from the intensity of their emotions.

Some people seem to act helpless, victimized by their own bodies, almost like they've been hijacked by the chemicals rushing through their brains. It's as if they seek validation from this rush of emotions.

Do the world a favor, and pick one day of the week. On this day, if you encounter someone who's allowing this to happen to themselves, give them the gift of your compassion. Say nothing, smile, give them your grace and allow them to make their own mistakes.
