About emotions.

Are emotions helping or hindering you? I know as a girl, I often feel like my emotions are a hindrance to me. I mean, sometimes there just out of whack and I wish I didn't have them. I've also had several of my friends tell me they wished they didn't have to bother with emotions. So I started thinking about it; a life without emotions. 

You wouldn’t have to deal with sadness, anger, bitterness, envy, stress, frustration, hurt, or greed. 

But what would that life be like? Would you honestly want a life without happiness, piece, love, joy, and excitement? 

Aren't emotions part of what makes life to special? It’s what makes friendships so happy. It’s what makes birthdays exciting. It’s what makes our relationship with God so for filling. It’s what makes rain soothing. It’s what makes weddings joyful. 

If you didn't have any emotions, you would not get much out of life. True, you would have no heartache, or pain. But it’s the hard things in life that makes the good times so good. And it’s the good times in life that make the hard easier to bare, because we know something better is coming. 

So do we really want to take emotion out of life?
