picking up on what’s going on inside—If we’re happy, sad, angry or hurt we will usually send out strong subliminal messages. When those are picked up on, we know that we are really being noticed and paid attention to. Sometimes others can notice shifts in moods before we recognize it ourselves and if they do something that lifts our state of mind, it will calm, balance and soothe us. Yes, we are responsible for our own emotional levels, however, having someone close to us responding lovingly just reminds us once more how much we are loved.
