Depression, sadness, anger, hatred, envy, jealously, the list goes on. These feelings can be caused by anything from something as little as not getting invited to that stupid party, to as big as a horrific tragedy that took the life of your loved one. They are all dark, potentially dangerous, powerful emotions so many people achingly go through, and even go as far as taking their own life because of them.
Hope, faith, trust, love, caring, selflessness, gratefulness, forgiveness; this list goes on also. These feelings have just the same amount of power as the dark in some cases, less in most, but more in the few that can see the bright side of things even when they're being consumed by darkness. The ones that know it'll turn out okay.
Emotions are those tricky little things that make up pretty much everything about who we are. They can change in the blink of an eye, but also last for forever. They can make you feel like the happiest girl in the world, or the loneliest, saddest person ever. They're overrated, exaggerated, and no one emotion is always the same, just like snowflakes. Emotions are an uphill battle and a sliding slope at the same time. What would our world be like without emotions? What would it be like to be emotionless, empty pits without any feeling whatsoever? A world without any feelings... A world without love...
Sure, that would mean no heartbreak, no crying yourself to sleep after the boy you thought you loved left you and such, but would that be worth not feeling your heart skip a beat when that certain someone smiles at you from across the room with that look in his eye?
Sure, those dark, dreary feelings are scary and bad, but along with any bad there is always a hope of good that you can cling onto for dear life if you need to.
Emotions are bittersweet. They come with the bad, but they also come with the good. It's a take it or leave it deal, but aren't they worth the bad when finally you get that drop of good?
