"A strong feeling such as love or anger, or strong feelings in general"-Cambridge Dictionary Definition.
Emotions are most commonly followed by an action and the degree of that said 'action' is distinguished by the characteristics of the person in question. Emotions seem to differ from person to person with each individual person, creating their own spin or uniqueness to it. This can be observed simply by watching those around you whilst you go about your life. For example, everyone has a different facial expression or a different 'spin' on a emotion when saying "thank you" after purchasing an item or receiving your long awaited meal at a restaurant.
I sometimes find it hard to choose the right way to express my feelings. Which can over complicate life. At these times I usually find myself with mixed emotions and a strained expression. These mixed feelings are like different coloured fireflies in a clear glass jam jar flying around, desperately anticipating a simple pop of the lid. I look back at moments of my life and grit my teeth just thinking "why didn't I say something..." or "maybe if I said that...". But there is no point looking at what 'happened' or 'what was' because I understand that is no longer who I am and I will never be able to change that(until science FINALLY gives us the ability to time travel!) and I need to take these moments as a learning curve.
At times this feels hard to believe, and my life has taken swift turns for the better and worse because of it. I'm trying not to sound over dramatic but I know life's never going to be easy and I'm far from perfection but I hope ten years from now I will be at least content with how far I have progressed and at least grateful for where I am if not half content with my life as it stands then.
