perhaps

      Perhaps I over stated my case in my last blog, kind of what Sartre did. Sometimes humans cannot control their emotions. I know this from first hand experience. Chemical imbalances in the brain can cause depression, and cannot be controlled. Although I still do believe that humans choose to feel things, some things cannot help but to be felt. I think that humans can also choose not to feel things, again, the depressed feeling of numbness cannot always be helped but to be felt, I think that humans can also choose to block things out, to be numb. I think that needing to block things out and not feel is as much a part of human nature, as feeling is. I think that as much as humans love to feel, too much feeling can lead to an overwhelming feeling of pain, or too much doubt in happiness. I think that it is part of human nature to block out emotions and feel numb in order to control emotions, especially when they are strong, too strong. As much as humans love to feel emotions, humans need to not feel, or block out feelings to keep themselves sane.
