Bottled Emotions

Emotions, what exactly are they? Many think they are part of being human, others think they are shared by all living things. Anger, happiness, sadness, love and hate, these are all emotions; confusion ripens within them all. Life itself provides opportunities for emotions to take seed within the mind but many things can sow them deep within. A mixture of emotions can be felt instantly, like a dark cloud falling as rain on to the drought damaged ground. Emotions can make many feel full of irksome thoughts that never seem to go away; they sink their claws deeper into the mind determined to make their mark. Many of us have the inane habit of masking our true emotions with a false reflection of contentment when chaos is occurring within our minds; depression and misery are forged in the furnace of the mind, creating a prison to bottle up our true emotions. Many bottles may be created but eventually they will shatter releasing the emotions in one explosive event demolishing the false outer shell of deception.
