Emotions: We Hate Them To Have, But Can't Live Without

emotions-funny-bunnies

Sometimes it makes me think that if there were no emotions in our lives, what would happen? Yeah, apart from being a boring robot, we may live a life with no pain, no strings attached, and overall a life without any headaches. Right?

An Emotionless World

I mean just think about it. The sheer amount of mental pain we get every time we screw up, it’s all because we can feel. If they don’t exist in the first place, well maybe we may not feel any pain also.

But here comes another contradictory thing, if we feel pain, because of our emotions, then we also feel happiness. (mind= blown)

The fact is emotions are part of our lives and they will always be there in our lives. We take emotions like something that has come from the sky, glorify it and make them overrated.

Then something bad but kind of expected happens. We rant, scream, cry. We question ourselves that why we are feeling (terrible, disgusted, embarrassed, *insert your favorite bad emotions*) But if we think about it, we will find out that emotions are pretty neutral themselves. They naturally don’t tell anything about us, our situations, or anything. They just indicate our mental condition only.

How To Treat Emotions

Treat emotions like pain receptors. If we get hurt physically, our pain receptors get triggered and send information to the brain that something bad has happened and we should look after it quickly. Emotions work exactly like that. If we feel bad because of a certain situation, the “feeling bad” doesn’t necessarily saying anything about us; like we are bad or everyone will laugh at us. It simply says that “hey! Something triggered me. You should give a check in this area.”

If we take this perspective we will see that emotions (mostly bad ones) are not the villain but the unsung heroes, which sometimes indicate the greater problem, so that we can take a look and start healing. But there is another interesting fact. Just like our sensors sometimes get deceived and we feel itchy for no reason, sometimes we feel bad for no reason at all. They are just one of the mysterious but beautiful things of our complex human mind.

So, stop being so hard on your emotions. They are for you, and they love you!

Love: So Beautiful but Haunting

Whatever I thought was there, she thought differently.” – Barney Stinson  ( How I met your mother ) We all want to find the love so beautiful , that the heart bleeds. When I was watching this episode (season 7, episode 17) I didn’t actually expect this quote, mainly from a guy like Barney, who is a certified sociopath, but when Barney dropped this bomb all of a sudden, it felt like a missile just ripped apart my heart and made me think. It made me ponder about one of the most complex emotions of our reality,  Love . One day, BAM! We experience that moment. It’s that moment where we see a person, and something unusual happens. For some people the time stops, some might find their hearts skipping a beat. Whatever the moment is, we all feel the same emotion, love. All of a sudden you are making future plans with that person. Plan of having a lavish vacation, or a plan of having a future family. Some of us are realists though, but even they love to think of spending time wi...

The Rudest Book Ever: Learn How to think

Shwetabh Gangwar is one of those rare YouTubers whom I gladly found. His “ The Rudest Book Ever ” is a simple yet intellectually challenging book that might even make you severely uncomfortable. In this article, we are going to talk about “The Rudest Book Ever”. Do you love to think? Do you love to share different perspectives with people? Are you fed up with those so-called “Motivational” speakers, who talk all rainbow and unicorn but when it comes to applying, those talk sucks? Then Shwetabh Gangwar’s “The Rudest Book Ever” is for you. In late 2018, while mindlessly surfacing the web, I came to know about Shwetabh Gangwar. An Indian YouTuber with a rude mouth, I felt very uncomfortable watching his videos first. But then, I came to realize that everything this guy is saying is true. Pure, no bullshit truth. And I was hooked. He didn’t (and still don’t) care about what other people thought about his perspectives, he refused to take media/public narratives without any lo...

In The World of Fake Friends(Problem Or Not?)

Nowadays when I surf social media I get a lot of statuses about fake friends. My wall gets rumbled by cheesy fake friends quotes. It seems like everyone is becoming selfish, how “real love” or “real friendship” is becoming so rare and most importantly how ‘fake friends’ are becoming our only friends. Now, for me, friendship is a relationship where there is a minimal amount of selfishness is involved. We see friends who celebrate fifty years of friendship. We see friends who sacrifice themselves for their friends. But still, it seems like in our own lives, we don’t get the same treatment from our friends that we see in other’s lives. We begin to get bitter about our friends, we begin to complain about how life is so unfair and we only have fake friends. So, what’s the issue here?
