emotions being manifestations emanating from thought and then indulgence in the emotion reinforcing thought becomes a cycle whose root lies within our choice to indulge, to stagnate owing to delusional fear or desire, in that illusionary state.
this being so all we need to do is rotate polarity of thought and resultant emotion. depression to joy ... joy to depression ... depression to joy ... look at the rotation. it is a dance. do not fight it, just look at it. the emotions we do experience but we are flowing, essence of our presence is flowing, experiencing & observing. like a game!
more often than not, that what we seek ... once we get it, we no longer are content with it. look for the seeker, the doer within who is so seeking. a game of hide & seek!
in choosing the more enduring & uplifting contemplate on what it is that may transition from the ephemeral to the eternal. find that. seek that. attain (be) that.
meanwhile, on a practical note, since our thoughts have limitations as long as there is a doer, a thinker thinking, connect to the Universe making the Universe Itself a co-conspirator to fulfill our desire. however, to do so, we must let go of the doer, the thinker, the desirer!
