It’s the one thing that can hold us back, or propel us to
new heights. It is what differentiates us from computers and drives the
continuity of our species. So how is it that success in our society, is seemingly
structured in very different manner? The most successful people seem to be the
ones that suppress emotion and rationally make their decisions. We are taught
from a young age to discipline ourselves, and refrain from the overuse of
emotion in everyday life. We are told to refrain from young love, anger, greed,
and jealousy if we want to become socially successful. Yet, what drives people to greater heights,
are these emotions. Some of us, when we are jealous, strive to be the person we
envision in our minds because of it. For others, love will drive us to do things we never imagined of ourselves. Our insecurities provide a path that we
can follow and give meaning to our lives. So embrace it, cherish it, love it,
because it’s only human.
