Emotion Intelligence
For my first post, emotional intelligence. Recently I read this book on emotional intelligence, that talks about emotions as some chemical reaction in the brain. It is very true. There is this example of a guy that got his amygdala damaged due to some illness. Since then, he has no desire to do anything, not even to eat or drink or to go out and have fun. There is totally no desire or whatsoever in anything. The only thing that is going through the mind is just thoughts of nothing. There is no desire even to ask WHY.
For me I personally felt that I really needed that. To experience happiness one must know and even experience what is sadness, pain, hurt. For me, I rather forgo happiness, if I know eventually it is gonna hurt me. But I can't. I am a sentimental person, emotions is every part of my life. In the event of searching for happiness, I got myself hurt time and again. Seriously hoped that life would be in utopia, where there is no happiness, and also no pain, no sadness and no hurt. That is exactly the same as the guy that his amygdala is damaged.
Fear is just False Evidence Appears Real. For me I think fear is all in the mind, especially in the amygdala. An example of a past painful experience.
For those who thinks that a relationship or a friendship is like a game. A game when there is a specific time to end. Then I should say don't mess with me, if you so much so want to do that to me, why not save me the trouble and kill me now. For I cannot enudure the torment of longing for a lost love. A love I thought would withstand time. I am very disappointed. Especially in myself, myself for faithfully believing that everything could be worked out.

A mixture of personalities make up what we call 'people'. Our life revolve searching for the suitable type. Somehow when we thought that she/he is the one, unexpected circumstances caused by these 'people' becomes a weapon to ruin the hope we once held. I always believe that we shouldn't hurt someone likewise if we wish that a similar hurt is not inflicted on us. How much time exactly is needed to search for the right person who feels as much as we do having the same wavelength and attitude in life.
