wallowingPigs wallow in mud and they have a grand time of it, enjoying the feel and the experience.  Humans wallow in experiences at times, but do they enjoy it?  Not always.  Some wallow in lower emotions because they have become stuck in the mud and cannot find their way out.  A sure way out is by offering your hand to another.   At first glance you are being pulled out of your wallowing, but in offering your hand you have made a connection that goes straight to the heart.  Your thoughts move from what seem to be your own challenges and your focus is placed outside of yourself.  Be aware that others’ stories can take you to yet another place of wallowing, so keep your focus on the heart connection, there at the center, and you will find it far more challenging to wallow.
