THE THING EMOTION

Whenever Emotion is mentioned, what runs through the mind of many is romance or, maybe anger. Can we say that is true? No, it is not. If it is not true, then what is the thing Emotion?

My online English Dictionary defines Emotion this way: "A person's internal state of being and involuntary physiological response to an object or a situation, based on or tied to physical state and sensory data." In my own words I say, Emotion is an inner sense of every human being. In other words, Emotion is the ability to perceive every single feelings, you might not react to it, but you are internally aware of the touch. It is an evidence of being human.

Every human being is wired to be Emotional (perceive feelings), however, reactions to feelings range from person to person, because we are differently wired, especially the male and female gender. But, the truth is, both male and female are wired to be Emotional.

The part of every human being is Emotion, we have the ability to perceive joy, love, romance, pain, hurt and compassion for friends, but the reactions to these are different in respect to individual make up. Let us shun the fallacy that "only women are Emotional". Both male and female have the ability to be joyous, to love, to engage in romantic acts, to feel pain, to get stung in the heart when hurt and to be compassionate when a friend is troubled. We all have this ability and it shows in our daily activities.

Therefore, because Emotion is part of every man's make-up, every activities of men are 'naturally' guided by emotions also. Your success in all facets of life is somehow dependent on how you temper or manage your Emotions.

THE MIRROR: IDENTITY AND SELFHOOD

Identity. It’s the essence of who you are—your personality, the core of your being. Selfhood, on the other hand, is the expression of that identity, the way you present yourself to the world. Think back to a time when you had to show your identity card. Do you remember the reaction of the person you handed it to? Likely, they nodded in approval, having seen all the necessary information about you on that card. Your identity, in that moment, was defined by the details captured on that small piece of plastic. But identity is more than just what's written on a card. It’s how you define yourself and how others perceive you. It’s the name you give yourself, the image you project, and the way people recognize you. Selfhood is often conveyed through three key aspects: - Dressing (Your Appearance) - Actions (What You Do and How You Do It) - Speech (The Words You Speak and How You Utter Them) Dressing (Your Appearance) There’s a common saying: "Appearance shows the manner."

The Greatest Goal

When the ball enters the net, they say it's a goal! And the loosing team feel defeated forgetting that they've got the greatest goal. Same to a man who has all his goals lain down and strategically pulling his efforts towards the goal but to realize at the end that, his goals can't be achieved, for known or unknown reasons. He looses strength. At times, he can feel like it's over. But the truth remains that it's not over until it is over. He's got the greatest goal. Really, a goal is the achievement toward which effort is directed. And billions are the "I want to", "by God's grace I will", "in fact, I must" in the speeches of every man, especially at the beginning of every matter, but strength wanes and the story changes maybe in the middle of the road. Because all efforts put towards the achievement of the goals seem to be less affective. The truth is, no man has control over whatever happens and will happen....
