Emotions- A Game Of Snakes and Ladders

For people feelings and emotions are very much the same. So naturally, we would perceive them as synonyms; two words with same meaning. However, they are dependent on each other, emotions and feelings are different things.

Emotions describe physiological state and generated subconsciously. Usually, they are bodily responses to certain events. By contrast, feelings are basically subjective experiences of emotions driven by conscious thoughts and reflections. Which states we can have emotions without having feelings, however, one simply cannot have feelings without having emotions. Sounds complicated enough?

Emotions... How should i describe them? A roller coaster ride? Or maybe explosion of liquids in our body mentally Or the way I explained it above. Though we know our mind and heart are located at different places BUT they are intimately connected, Too much science Huh (Difficult). Let's keep it simple because we complicate things. So, A roller coaster sounds perfect.

Emotions, five simple yet so complicated emotions or like I said we complicate things. A messenger of feelings in your heart and mind. Do you know what evokes the human emotions? Music. evoke range of human emotions right from being sad, nostalgic, and tense, to happy, calm, and joyous. (Just saying)

We humans tend not to express our emotions. Do we express? No we don't. We never do. Why? I myself don't have an answer to this question but all i know is we suppress them. Don't we ? Suppressing emotions is like a feeling where you're in the jar with storms and and a lot of chaos, restlessness, anxiety and what not. Why keep feeling those storms when you can speak up and let it go? Why don't we let go those events of our lives which leaves imprints of it repeatedly ?

Lastly as said by Shahrukh Khan in Dear Zindagi,
Tum agar khulke ro nahi sakogi … toh khulkar has kaise sakogi???
