Human Emotion

Human emotion

While humans are not always
thinking (*yea rite) we’re always alert and aware of any
emotion-provoking stimuli around us.

Over the course of a
typical day, we’ll experience a wide range of different emotions.

An item in the news may
provoke anger, a favorite piece of music may elicit joy, and disagreement with
a close friend may be distressing.

Without emotion, our world
would be numb, grey, and lacking in meaning or motivation

Human have powerful
emotional responses to a huge range of things, from personal life events to
watching our favorite sport team

For example my emotion
could be ‘stimulated’ just by watching magnificent start of an F1 racing (go
Kimi go!),

or by just a glimpse of a fine looking girl browsing in a good book
store (*imaginary conversation, me: sendirian aja mbak? (jayus)... she: loh sama
mas kan jadi
berdua? (lebih jayus lagi)…he he…)
