Emotions

January 24, 2011

Statuary warning: This blog has become my outlet for emotions. Read it at your own risk.

A person without emotion is like a physical body without life.Emotions define the type of person we are. and what we become.

According to Wiki, Emotion is the complex psychophysiological experience of an individual’s state of mind as interacting with biochemical (internal) and environmental (external) influences. In humans, emotion fundamentally involves “physiological arousal, expressive behaviors, and conscious experience”. Emotion is associated with mood, temperament, personality and disposition, and motivation.

Keeping emotions in check is not the easiest thing in the world.Most of the times emotions get the best of  us and we do things which we would not have done had emotions not got the better of us. Having put this down, a person who is emotionless is like a hollow cylinder. Like in anything there are two extremes in this as well. Some people are over emotional while some people are not even a tad emotional. I put myself in the over emotional category but life’s experiences have certainly had their effects on me and I try to keep the emotions in check to a larger extent and have done it successfully thus far.

Its not the worst idea in the world to let out your emotions from time to time as pent up emotions lead to frustrations and its very stressful. Finding the right balance between emotions is very important or else it will add up to the stress.So people let out your emotions either to a friend or to your house walls.

    I think one of the best ways to release pent up emotions/stress is to engage in some physical activity on a regular basis. Iv also found that a good trip somewhere near the sea is a real refresher. Experienced that first hand when i went scuba-diving at Murudeshwar.

    how effective is letting out your emotions to a house wall??
    ..and they say walls have ears.. does that help :P

    on a slightly more serious note… i guess we should reason out more with ourselves stop from acting out of emotional impulse..


  3. Emotion check. Not really sure what you are exactly targeting within “emotions”. But in general, patience, calm mind, delayed response when under an emotional swing is best. Also, any activity, from exercises to talking to a friend helps. its important to unwind. I have been unwinding for the last few months through trekking, sketching and talking to friends. It has helped. Unwind. Its a necessity.


  4. Everyone has a self realization of how long he can keep his emotions a secret. Some day or the other he ends up no less than Mount Merapi!

    But other side is once the compression subsides he goes back to being the same :-) Not all humans like to be full of emotions. ;-)
