Emotion

The essence of being human is that one does not seek perfection, and that one is prepared in the end, to be defeated, and broken up by life, which is the inevitable price of fastening one’s love upon other human individuals. - George Orwell (1903 - 1950)


Have you ever asked yourself the question, “Why did I do that?” Many times our decisions are based on emotions. Anger, jealousy, bitterness, and guilt are potential hazards to staying on course to equality.

Emotions are fundamental to human life; they define its quality and motivate action. Emotions make us human. Without emotions, we would perform like robots.

How many different objections are there to Equality? Probably too many to count.

Scientists have recorded the gentle flicker of activity that lights up the brain when we form our first impressions of people. The study shows how age-old brain circuitry that evolved to make snap decisions on the importance of objects in the environment is now used in social situations.

Previous work by neuroscientists has shown we form our first impressions well within 30 seconds of meeting people. Often, our opinion changes very little after knowing them for longer.

When you meet a person, they might say something, or look a certain way, or behave a certain way, but you have very little information on which to form an opinion, but it is almost instantaneous and you can't withhold from doing it.

What, how is our perception of the strands of equality and the emotion affect around this?
