On emotion

Our lives are highly affected by emotion. Different people in a different way and degree and the impact can be interweaved indirectly as well. Life is more complicated in certain ways, because of it, but emotion is the fuel to our life’s engine. It is an integral part of being human.

Emotion is not always expressed in words (James 3.5-10), but can also manifest in many ways: actions, behaviours, etc. Managing emotion is difficult - it triggers subconsciously and quickly. But deal with it, we must.

Emotion colour lives, but unbridled emotion can wreak havoc.
