  • Emotions definitely possess great power to rule a person both physically and mentally. It is the most critical weapon in the hands of human beings, which unless used wisely can make anyone a living dead soul. It’s potential to harm and hurt anybody is much more than any weapon in this world.

    Emotions rule a person’s mind and brain. One needs a very strong will power to overcome his emotions and take a decision otherwise. It penetrates the depth of mind and soul and depresses the controlling organ of the body which impairs the appropriate cognition and co-ordination with respect to our thought process.

    The physical injury, however critical it may be, gets healed much easily than a injured heart. Playing with emotions is an art in itself. We can attract, impress and make anyone happy by the flow of emotions; similarly it can be as destructive to lead a person to the thought of suicide or force them to take such silly decisions in a fit of emotional depression.

    Such an important feeling provided to the hu8man being should be used wisely. Undoubtedly, emotions can make a person cheerful as well as sick.
