A Learning Way

Julia:

What are emotions?

My answer:

Emotions are very beautiful. They can be clear or unclear. There is no set definition of emotions. An emotion is something that is connected through all, but really, to connect them, there is something else. I may as well call it "energy". Let's say this "energy can connect all emotions. But not only can it connect emotions - it also connects thoughts, pictures, feelings, etc. Emotions are really just a small part of it, something that a living creature holds... OR something that a living creature has impressed upon a nonliving thing. These impressed upon emotions are what I tend to call "shadow emotions" because they are a shadow of a time of the creature that left it there. This is why some houses are easier to sell than others: some may be filled with joy, while others had been filled with complete chaos when they were lived in previously. Houses, buildings, art, etc can also take on the emotion or the feeling of the person who created it.

I still didn't explain what emotions are... Hmm.... They hold memories within them, the emotions. They are feelings and... hmm... Let me break this into categories.

[I went on to break it in to categories for Julia, but I really didn't like those, because emotions are not something that you should consciously break into categories. They are abstract, and beautiful the way they are. There's no reason to classify or organize them. And that's that.]

but it is better not to hide any of the emotions from you. Really, they are all emotions. There are differences between [them all] though. But these are only the very simple [categories]. You can never put emotions into a logical thing. They are very abstract things, and it is better that you learn what they are yourself so that you understand them better.
