The reason why I chose Catharsis as my blog’s name

Writing to me is an exercise that allows me to release most of my feelings and continue living…

But the author of the following painting and poem describes better than I do:

Catharsis

Catharsis

Our emotions run high…
They’ll consume us, if you let them…
Anger and jealousy
Spinning out of control

Purge bad emotions
Any way that you can…
Take the weight off your shoulders
And leave it behind

Once you have done this,
Move on with your life…
And use your time
For kindness and love…
