Some people are more in tune with emotions than others. Some are able to understand the feelings of others' while others may only be able to be in tune with only their own emotions. Deep down, even the most logical people tend to have the most emotions. Some naturally are so in tune with everyone's emotions including their own. Learning to balance emotion can be a constant struggle all through life but it does depend on how willing you are to work on them. Emotions don't make sense from a purely logical point of view. They can spiral out of control, start and stop when you least expect, and tear you to pieces. However, emotions can be a tool. Without emotions, there are no friendships, no art, no music, no sympathy, and no connection with anything. Emotions are like dogs. Either you can learn to control it or you or it will control you and run free wherever it pleases. But in order to figure out which, you have to pay attention to your inner self. Emotions are crafty things in that they can so secretly hide behind a person's motives. As far as other people's emotions go, never say they do or don't feel something because some are masters of concealing their emotions. I might also say that dealing with any kind of emotion is like lifting weights. If you don't deal with them regularly, you won't be able to handle them. If you get used to building up to handling the bigger, heavier ones, they aren't so bad to deal with when the biggest ones come your way - you'll be strong enough to carry them because let's face it: negative emotions are heavy. Emotions are also like knives. They can either be useful - like cutting into the fruit of happiness or something - or harmful. But it's a choice no less for the user. There's a right way to use them and a wrong way to use them. How will you use them?
