Emotions

Emotions are a tricky thing. Most days we do fine by our emotions they're a good gut check. But then there are the days that you don't want to feel the sorrow and fear. It's too much. Some people believe our feeling and emotions, these things we don't control nor should we, is what really makes us human. Compassion, regret, no other animal can feel these things. But I find it incredibly bizarre that the very things we have no control over are what makes us who we are.

Humans are able putting order and control into the world. No stone is left unturned and no mystery left to ponder. I wonder if it the rationality we put into something so instinctual is really what makes us human. You see, love, fear, courage and a myriad of other feelings don't have any reason behind them. Just some chemicals doing some work in the old brain. But sometimes I feel like we forget it was never about the things we couldn't change, it's about the ones we can.
