I feel…vs…I think….vs…I know ~ Logic vs Emotion

Why I’m writing this post.  See, usually I’ve got a reason or a freaking purpose for writing these esoteric bloggity posts.  Anywayz.  I think it had something to do with not making stupid mistakes that you’ll regret.  Yeah, that was it. XD  I think it’s pretty annoying when people make ridiculous decisions in the heat of the moment of an emotional time.  It clouds your judgement really, and doesn’t do you or anyone else any good at all when you decide to make life-altering or serious decisions “just because” you feel like it. Nuh-uh.  If we all did what we felt like it, the world would be a horridly messed up place, no?  Yes.  Imagine complete chaos, because the president felt slighted that the Russian Embassy didn’t send him a birthday card, so he dropped a bomb.  9_9  Yeah, we all can agree that would be STUPID.  Anyone else know what I’m talking about?  You “feel” like something, and you rush into a decision, regardless of how much it makes sense or how logical it is.  Yeah, emotions and feelings can have some relevancy, but c’mon, we’d all be a mess if we wore our hearts on our sleeves 24/7 and were incapable of making rational decisions.

You know I’m right.  So, to draw to a point.  Why is it that while we know that’s true, that we know that it makes sense, that we STILL insist on “well I feel like ~” whatever.  And then make stupid decisions.  I FEEL LIKE YOU DON’T LOVE ME.  Why?  Oh, your boyfriend didn’t text you?  9_9  I FEEL ALONE!  Why? Oh, you didn’t get invited to the company Christmas part at the secretary’s house?  Big, freaking deal.  And then you find out weeks later that your boyfriend’s cellphone messed up, and that your invitation was lost in the mail.  And there you go, ticking off the most important person in your life and making him feel like crap, and alienating yourself from your coworkers by pouting for a month.  Please.  Let’s have some maturity people, and grow up.

If you “feel” like something, consider the situation, look at it in a removed manner, analyze it (without overthinking) and come up with a practical solution to dealing with how you “feel”.  Try and figure out WHY you feel like that, and ask yourself honestly if you’re being reasonable or if you’re just overreacting and being self-centered.  And that, ladies and gentleman, is my lecture for the day.  Thoughts, comments…below.

p.s.  I am not attacking any specific person.  I am simply addressing discrepancies that I have seen in my own life and noticed in others.  Hence by fixing my issue…maybe my advice will help you do the same. XD
