On Catharsis, or Feeling All The Feels Is Pretty Cool Sometimes and Also Healthy and Stuff

Over the past two weeks, I have been attending a seminar at work in which we have been discussing ways in which we can change our outlook on situations, especially at conflicts we face in our jobs, and creating a safe distance.

I was struck by something the lecturer said regarding the power of communication:

“Something you say out loud has a charge and significance that something kept silent cannot.”

Ah, catharsis.  My old friend.
