Emotional ignorance is the surest form of self-deception
There are as many different definitions of emotions as there are researchers. And even more, because, as Carl Jung said, in the depths of every emotion there is a truth that the mind cannot formulate.
Why can't we think like the world when we are hungry?
What is the matter with nightmares?
Why can't we forget unpleasant memories?
What would life be like without emotions?
Why do we follow our instincts?
Why is it so hard let's stop our thirst for catastrophic news?
Why was life more true once upon a time?
