What is an emotion? Here is my definition:
I also believe every type of emotion is corresponds to a type of thought. This is where the diversity of emotions comes from. In this regard, I believe there could be unlimited types of emotions as long as they are concerned with good, bad or duty.
What is an emotion? Here is my definition:
An emotion is a state of mind concerned with good, bad or dutyI believe that all emotions are rooted in at least one of three things: good, bad and duty. Most emotions fall somewhere on the dichotomy of good and bad, but there are also duty-based emotions that can be completely void of feelings of good and bad. An example of a duty based emotion is want. Want does not necessarily feel good or bad, but instead it is a duty towards something. Another duty based emotion is seriousness. Seriousness does not necessarily feel good or bad, but instead it is a duty to treat something with importance.
