Hospitality Management

It takes a strong person to open the door to emotions. Once you hear love knock, you have to make a choice between leaving it out in the cold or cracking the door just wide enough for it to slip in. If you choose the latter, although you only open the door wide enough for love, hurt is so strong that it pushes it's way past your tight grip on that door, inviting itself in; anger and jealousy so rudely follow. The next thing you know, sympathy blows past you and turns on the national news. While your fumbling for the remote trying to turn off the horror in the world, any and all emotions burst the front door wide open, and take over your entire house. In comes hate, hope, rage, sadness, understanding, joy, faith, lust, depression, strength and many more. Although, you would gladly let a few stay, it's too late to put the unwanted emotions back outside, because even if you do, the door is open so you can no longer pick and choose which ones can stay. You probably begin to think how weak you must have been for allowing love in simply to trick you. Just when you feel like your home has been invaded, strength taps you on the shoulder with a solution. "Only feed invited guests," says strength. Those starved emotions will, one by one, take residence elsewhere. Although the door has been completely knocked down, there's no need to rebuild it.
