    Your emotions are information - I completely agree with you. What a helpful lens; especially the bit about the healing power of gratitude.

    Good job on the lens! It's good to express your emotions (although tactfully) and not hold it in because bottling them up makes it ready to explode later on.

    Excellent lens. All guys should see it.

    Great lens! Good, essential information especially to help those who experienced childhood emotional abuse--A condition that is not easily recognized and therefore becomes very difficult to realize one's need for emotional healing. Past damage is usually why people have trouble getting in touch with their emotions and feelings.

    Great information. It took me a long time to actually express my emotions to people. I am still working at it and think I always will.

    Excellent lens with useful, timely, and relevant information on emotional intelligence. I recently read that..."Awareness without action creates illusion. To manifest results in the physical world, you must take action. When that ation is the result of a conscious choice guided by your core values and purposes your results are most successful and fulfilling."

    The late Band leader and Balladeer, Barry White said quite succintly when he utttered the phrase..."Practice what you preach" from one of his last songs released in 2003.

    I got a wealth of information from this lens. Sometimes I feel as though I am a bundle of emotions and surely I will explode from the feelings that I carry. You've given me a lot of information that I feel I will use judiciously and it will help improve my life. Thank you for sharing, and at no cost!:~) See you around the galaxy...

    Feelings make us human. They can be hard to deal with, but that's the human experience. You could have been born a spoon.

    Emotions are very significant indicators if only we know how to read them and stand firm on what they reveal to us. Sometimes I think that we should not share them until we get what they are saying because so often other people misinterpret our emotions and make experiences become bitter. Emotions are very valuable.Thanks for such inspiring lens.

    Amazing lens - too many people have a tendency to try to be emotionless to protect themselves. Very thought provoking work.

    Interesting lens..there is not one like it at all. I talk some about emotions and music on my Pittsburgh Piano Tuning blog.

    emotion serves no purpose, emotion is akin to a redundant organ, a primitive evolutionary adaptation that is no longer rquired
  • jaktraks Feb 6, 2011 @ 9:31 am | delete
    You may be right, what do I know, but people have to accept their feelings and learn to manage emotions before they can stop being ruled by them.

    Our emotions are very important, but the most important is to stay strong.
  • TamaraKajari Oct 31, 2010 @ 8:22 am | delete
    Just reading this lens relaxed me beyond expectation. Then it made me start thinking how simple most of the tips are. But then again, we people usually complicate our lives on our own, while the solutions are usually quite simple:-) Thank you for this nice lens.
  • ClassyGals Oct 10, 2010 @ 3:03 pm | delete
    Another great lens! Your lenses are so very interesting. Thanks for all the info on emotions. I tend to let my emotions get the best of me at times, this should help me improve on this important health issue.

    What an amazing lens. Emotions are so important, and I always felt you needed to express them or else you would explode. Very informative lens, thanks for sharing it!
  • sponias Aug 28, 2010 @ 6:45 pm | delete
    Your work is very interesting! Our emotions are really very important. Fear is a protection, sadness gives us sensitivity, happiness completely changes the way we live, and so on. We need our emotions for many reasons.

    Hello Jacqueline; I like this lens on emotions the way it is setup with quotes, books, and videos. I will use Carey's Emotions song for my self-esteem group of teen girls. I have been teaching esteem groups for three years. I have some tips for healing emotional trauma on my lens. I am also finishing writing a book on "The Power of Emotions," stories and methods to heal emotional suffering.

    Blessings,
    Michael David Lawrience
