EMOTION

[Mister Obvious]

Emotion is something I shun and don't really consider.

I've never contemplated emotion at length, because when I think "emotion", I think about the negative aspects.

This is definitely rooted in my childhood.

To me, it was better to shelve emotion entirely and act like it's not even a thing.

Not all emotion is bad... there are a variety of good emotions.

But bad emotion and bad emotional displays are what caused me to just turn my back on the whole thing a long time ago and never even lend any thought or consideration to emotions at all.

I like to laugh and feel good emotions...

I need to reprogram myself to think of positive displays of good emotions whenever I hear or see the term "emotion" instead of what my brain currently defaults to.

I've always seen emotion as weakness, but really, the weakness is my own ignorance of emotion in general.
