Emoji Magic
While it may seem like a shortcut, emojis are an amazing and easy way to express yourself - especially when you don’t feel like actually talking about your feelings.
Emojis are no substitute for deep conversations, yet they act as a way for us to talk about what we’re going through without having to find and articulate the words.
You might feel like using emojis is a way to avoid your own emotions, but it’s quite the opposite. Using emojis in everyday chats and conversations is an excellent way to express yourself without feeling emotionally hijacked or on display.
People are quite capable of recognizing the emotions of the face and using emojis is a simple way to express your facial and physical emotions without having to feel completely exposed.
So, if you’re feeling stuck or wondering how best to express yourself, it might be worth it to try incorporating emojis into your daily texting life. You might discover an easy, effective way of communicating.
