Feelings, a meaning!

I was once crying during one emotional crisis and all of the sudden I got really mad at myself for feeling the way I was feeling. "WHY ARE YOU ALLOWING YOURSELF TO FEEL THAT WAY?", "WHY ARE YOU SO WEAK AND SENSITIVE ?", "WHY CAN'T YOU BE STRONG?" WHY...WHY..WHY... 

Today I think about it with a smile on my face because I finally allowed myself to understand the fact that there is no BECAUSE to feelings. Feelings are felt, they are not chosen so I have no reason to feel guilty about it. I mean, how can you be mad or feel guilty about something that you have no control on?
