Emotions.

I just read my friends blog, and she spoke of why us humans feel emotions.
She questioned why we had to endure such feelings whilst animals roamed freely.
So this made me think.
Would we be better off if we felt nothing?
To be honest, i think life is better with these emotions.
Our emotions are what lead us to choose our paths in life.
To be able to make a choice, we need to feel something inside that will help us make up our minds.
If we know it'll hurt if we choose one thing or the other, then we'd be able to make a better decision.
Sure, its tough having to deal with emotions such as sadness, disappointment, betrayal, envy...
But on the other hand we can feel happiness, euphoria, love, enlightenment.
So isn't it worth it?
It works the same way as how i mentioned in my blog prior to this.
When we're able to feel happiness, we must feel sadness.
Give and take.
That is how this world works.
Taking something without dealing with any consequences would make our world unruly.
Its not natural to always be in the right.
To be in the right, sometimes we need to be in the wrong.
Some things in life are worth enduring just to gain something new.
With love comes pain.
With happiness comes sadness.
With serenity comes agitation.
These emotions we feel are the epitome of what makes us who we are.
So perhaps it's not best if we feel nothing, because then our world would be savage.
People could kill eachother just because we don't feel fear or compassion.
Our world would be empty because no one felt curiosity and innovation.
Emotions do damage to our mental state, but as a give and take situation, we are strengthened by it.
We're fueled by emotion.
They keep us functioning.
Without it,
We'd all be nothing.
