Emotions

Few weeks back, I remember saying to one of my FoF(Friend on Facebook), that I'm gonna write a blog post on Emotions. Very interesting to see how I was taken on an emotional ride with my father being in emergency care. By God's grace, my emotional meter is back to normal now.

E-M-O-T-I-O-N ...the word itself is so complex, it bites every heart once in a while. If you don't have emotions, you are not a human being in good health for sure...or PATHAR DILWALE ;-). Emotions are like pillars that bond family and friends together. Emotions in cats, dogs and other animals show up until their offspings are well trained to feed themselves. But we, being the sophisticated animals, extend our emotional bonding beyond that circle and look back to see what we can do to our parents or people who took care of us and loved us unconditionally.

There are some emotions that make us feel good and some that make us feel bad. Wikipedia lists more than 50 emotions. But the one that tops the list for most of us is the emotion of LOVE. Want to know why?...coz it has emotions engraved in it... Lots Of Variety Emotions. Often the word LOVE is associated with broken hearts, no wonder it has links to so many other emotions, so use it cautiously. On the contrary, too much LOVE may lead to heart enlargements... good that there are heart enlargement treatments, but never heard of heart shrinkage treatments. 

We are all blessed with in-built emotional intelligence. But, what if we are drowning in emotional unintelligence? For few moments, its gravity pulls us down completely. Is there a way out? It's hard, but yes, just forget about it or avoid thinking about it... as if nothing happened. When our emotional intelligence wakes up, it will find its way out. Or share it with loved ones or close friends who can tap our emotional intelligence.

OK. Emotions make things even more complicated for women than men. It is Lord Brahma to blame for blowing everblooming emotions into woman's brain. See the video to know the difference between women's and men's brains ;-)



Woman's brain is not just super highway of interconnected emotions, also an expressway that needs the other person to be more expressive. Hope you got what I mean ;-). If you love a woman... especially your mom, don't just keep it in your heart, express it and you'll get a big smile for sure. Belated HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to all the mothers who are not subset of my FoF.

btw, sometimes don't forget to listen to music to uplift your emotions and enjoy your time with family. In that line, enjoy the song that's on the top list for me this week......melodious voice, heart touching lyrics, mesmerizing flute, soothing violin....what a beautiful song......
