We feel different emotions like happy or sad because of various situations. Specifically, we use and ability to feel, perceive and observe the world around us by using sensory perception. More often we people can’t fully describe their mental state of emotions, but human’s body can always feel the changes in itself and outwards things. So when a human is healthy, energetic, fresh and cheerful it means the person is happy. But if a human’s body is sick, or feels pain, a person will be sad.
Reason plays a great role in emotional state of a person. We know that reason is another source of self discovering, another way of knowing. It is often a case that motivates in life. By using reason as a thoughtful response people can make choices, make actions that leads to feeling certain emotions. So if a person has good specific reasons, he becomes happy. So we can say that if the person is happy, he becomes productive, therefore – successful. In fact it doesn’t mean that a person is unsuccessful if he is sad, because he can develop personal skills and make action by using different emotions.
Moreover, these two emotions like happy and sad mean different things for every person. Because not every one of us can describe fully what is happiness for him. He can feel it, and generally feels it not through specific settings, but by different life situations. For example, tears are considered to be the manifestation of sadness or misfortune. A human cries when he is saturated by emotions and is not able to control them. But tears are not always the display of negative emotions. The person can cry because of happiness as well. There is no specific formula in the world that can measure people’s feelings and emotions. Upon the whole for some people it is good to feel happy, for others – to be sad.
The whole world is divided into black and white sides. All sorts of media convince us from the childhood that it is right to be good than being bad. But how can we measure goodness or badness? The world is never easy and all aspects of life can be observed by two sides. And every person can have his own opinion on every situation.
