 Emotions r ■ Emotions are one thing which will always remain with us. Ever since the beginning of time, people have had different ways to react: Happy, sad, depressed, and excited are only a few of the emotions which we may show on daily basis. Moods change, people change, and circumstances change. In reaction to these, a person may show different feelings. It is normal for a person’s emotions to change with the times. If they don’t, then handling different situations will become difficult. A teenager may start the day tired and angry from rising so early for school. By the time first hour starts, he has talked with his friends, and he may be hyper and excited. But then he receives a bad grade on a test and becomes depressed. During lunch he talks with his girlfriend, and she cheers him up. By the end of the day, he could have been through several different emotions. Emotions are part of life, and if they aren’t expressed, a person might start to lose touch with others. By not letting people know how you are feeling when things go good or bad can cause one to withdraw into a state of isolation. Terry Walker looks expectantly for one of her friends.
