Theory of Expression

The more venues for expression an individual has, the less manifestation of negativity occurs within them.

Expression is the depiction or conveyance of feelings, of emotion, of thoughts and ideas, all of which is what actually drives mankind, and man, forward. Those who express themselves find outlets for all types of negative energy, which exists within all humans.

Without this release of energy, the negativity is kept within the individual's heart, mind, and soul until they cannot cope with it. This may lead to destructive means of expression--crime, violence, scapegoating, or the projection of negative emotions onto others. It all goes back to expression.

Humans have a strong need to express themselves. Limits imposed by society may hinder this expression, however, and so the individual must take steps in seeking out venues they consider to be positive outlets. Although these venues may not be in accordance with social convention, and as such must be chosen with maturity and intelligence, they are integral in releasing negative energy.
