Each one of us is linked to the emotions whether by protecting self values or deep affectionate involvement to objective. The “sense†is a gift to us to analyze the values of the personality and behave in accordance. Sense creates sentiment that helps to avoid harm to the values possessed deep in the personality. We avoid action or reaction to what is not related to our values. Our Endeavour is to retain our values unharmed is a method to maintain the identity intact but when lost, we loose emotionally means lost everything. Emotion is a reaction to the influence that contacts our personality. Unknowingly we get attached to others and their objectives; the attachment is due to the influence of the attraction. We become affectionate, friendly, begin involving deeply and etc; are the reactions called emotional attachment but when hurts that becomes emotional breakup. Our social action and reaction relates of our emotional attitude. The emotional attitude is the reflection of the values possessed deep in the personality and the reaction is in accordance. Our sense works on the basis of the qualities we have that reflects the attitude. I sense emotion in two philosophical thoughts; one is Identity emotion is the Endeavour to protect self values and the other Sentimental emotion is submission that involves acting in affection:
• Identity emotion: Each of us maintains self values deep in the conscious are important factors of our personality and becomes sentiment to us. The involvement to protect and live with own values is called sentiment. The sentiment that is possessed deep in the personality is called emotion. Emotion in fact is the process of submission towards the protection of values and living with it. Emotion is a communication that reflects values of own personality. Emotion has the ability to influence our behavior which contacts external environment. In many instances our emotions come forward to reject or accept certain ideologies as do or do not match with own possessed values. Emotions emerge when we are strongly attached to the principles of our personality. These qualities sense the external environment and assess relation with own values to influence our mind/ body strongly and activate the consciousness. No body would wish to go against own preserved values (emotions) as are the identity and dignity. Emotions are hurt when some one attacks the values (self-respect); this shock is an emotional injury.
• Sentimental emotion: Emotion is a form of the submission that involves acting in affection or tender, influenced by the environment and the attraction. Environment and attraction have ability to overpower the person’s consciousness and influence to behave in accordance to the objective. The deep attraction of care, touch, warm, liking, fondness, attachment and love stimulates our conscious to involve affectionately is called emotional involvement. Unknowingly or unconsciously a person gets involved towards the impact of the attraction. Change in the mood/ behavior is due to sentimental value of the objective and the strength of the influence of the attraction. Human mood fluctuates in the circumstances, some times sad, humor, romantic and etc; overpowers our personality to act in relation to the situation. The impact of attraction influences our sense to involve sensitively. When we are sentimental resulted by fascination, for any action we listen to heart rather than brain. We fall in love when our personality gets strongly attracted to the quality that delights us and we get involved emotionally. This is a process of mental submission to accept and appreciate the opposite’s intention of invitation. An emotion makes us to submit, entwine, despair, hate and invites to involve deeply.
You can understand ‘emotions’ as psychical processes, though they are not quantifiable, rather they manifest themselves as a surface phenomena apprehensible by consciousness, with which they are directed by intention, and as subterranean processes, in which they can be represented as neuronal activity and rest, neither of which is quantifiable.
Freud called this ‘activity and rest’ the ‘principle of neuronal inertia.’ He explains that the neurons tend to divest themselves of activity and rest, which he calls ‘discharge.’ When discharge does not occur, the retention of energy is known as cathexis, what we understand metaphorically as ‘nervousness.’ The discharge is the primary function, and goal, of the nervous system, and ‘reflex’ is the primary mode of discharge. The nervous system works mechanically to maintain a state of homeostasis, which it achieves by reducing external stimulus to its lowest possible influence while regulating its storage of energy, its states of motion and rest. This, however, is still a mystery to me. All I know is that the neuron doesn’t want to be bothered by external stimuli.
The discharge is the cells way of reducing the irritability of protoplasm in the living cell, its ‘flight from the stimulus,’ yet it maintains its inertia of ‘endogenous stimuli’ or ‘instinct,’ a programming of which it cannot escape. When an external stimulus affects the nervous system, the neurons primary role is to reduce the electro-chemicle reaction by discharging it through the reflex, by ‘grounding’ the charge so that it may pass through without disrupting its state of rest.
Freud calls is the reaction of the effect caused by involvement to environment that attracts us to behave
