OUR EMOTIONS Vs OUR LIFE - My Entry For ECOTRAIN's QOTW

Like question for each week this time too it is simple
but powerful topic that is to be discussed.
Arrows of many questions aimed at a single object, the human mind
and its resonance with the human behavior.
Like the endless waves of sea, any answer to this topic too results in the same way most probably.
Nevertheless one can always give an opinion which would be relevant and
carrying its own credibility due to the complex nature of the subject.

So let me also put forward my thoughts on this very interesting topic and though there many questions thrown to us. Do our emotions dictate our lives or do our lives dictate our emotions? . I dont think any one in this world could be able to find a default answer to this question. I believe it depends from person to person. There is already a measurement system called " Emotional Intelligence" introduced by John D Mayer and Peter Salovey in 1990s which they described as "a form of Social Intelligence that involves the ability to monitor one's own and others' feelings and Emotions to discriminate among them, source and to use this information to guide one's own thinking and action, which means there is always a scope available to find out how a normal person will evolve himself through evaluation of his emotions.

But Does this really happens or possible, As a social animal we are at most cases tend to respond to a situation without much thought about this EQ or IQ, Many peoples actions are based on the situations and the emotional feelings arising at the particular moment. That might be possibly happens while we hear a happy news such as birth of a newborn baby for our close ones or the emotional outburst while the news is that of some unfortunate incident such as demise or serious illness etc. Even in some cases people with high EQ may lose their control which makes them into the category of people whose lives were dictated by Emotions.

And there are situations where our lives dictate our emotions too. I would like to categorize those people who might be usually matured lot, trying to analyze quickly being into the situations they are in before responding to it etc. They would be normally having the ability to guide others too from going down emotionally.

I know few people, who are always tries to find happiness even in adverse conditions or situations. I still believe we are the owner of our on mind and creates our happiness. If one is able to understand that we cannot change the world or those incidents or happenings that directly or indirectly relates to our life or our happiness and in such situations our emotions are having practically zero relevance like in the few instances - "Some people seem to constantly be successful and happy" that mentioned in the contest blog, then they could control their lives in a sense. I believe some people are always trying to be positive as a result of the above thought.

Let me wind up here, like what I said last time too that There are plenty of materials and books are available such that I cannot contribute anything substantially. But I thought to participate in this and just scribbled few lines of my scrambled, conscious and unconscious mind.

Thanks for reading and the patience shown.
