Power Over Our Emotions

I have been writing about inner power recently. An aspect that I haven't mentioned is an idea by Deepak Chopra that states, "Ask, don't demand...Don't give others power over your emotions." Think about that. When we demand something from others, we give them the power to conform or refuse. They are in control, not us. If we simply ask, we retain the power and don't have to be angry at any decision. We continue to ceate our world with positive emotions, even if we don't like others' actions.

See one of my recent previous posts for another aspect of inner power and/or see my latest Practical Spirituality Newsletter for an extended discussion.
