The Sum Of All Emotions

Ever wondered what the sum of all emotions could be? What happens when a person experiences, in a relatively short time span, feelings of extreme happiness, fear, anticipation, tension, despair, hope, grief, power, hatred, success, failure, love, regret, resent and fortitude? Have people felt these feelings, one, many or all at a time? Sounds crazy but Im sure a few people have. When sober that too!

Do you run away from all that you feel, to salvage your seemingly low emotional threshold, or Do you subconsciously resolve to enjoy every moment of it, cos you know that few other things in your life will compare to the chaos that the 'Sum of all Emotions' has caused, and does that in itself make you a stronger human being?

It is usually at a time like this that the many characters in one's personality meet - the optimist meets the pessimist, the loser meets the champion, the soldier meets the wimp, the sinner meets the saint, the dreamer meets the realist, the chap who doesnt love someone anymore meets the bloke who isnt liked by someone else anymore.

And the emotions even out.

And out walks a person who is at complete peace with his/her self.

And a resolve is formed.

To value life, to manage time, to calculate decisions, to treasure friendships, to repair mistakes, to sustain ambition, to trust instinct, to preserve ego and .. to be a good human being.

If you have been lucky enough to experience this, you will most certainly agree with me when I say that Peace is the Sum of all Emotions. If you haven't, I wish you such an experience.

The past 3 months, I have most certainly experienced the sum of all emotions. It has had the greatest consequence in my life.
