Chunk #7- Feelings Draft 1

Although we may not acknowledge our feelings and/or emotions, they are present in our behavior on a daily basis. A feeling can range from something as simple as being happy and excited to something very complicated that you cant even explain, which may lead to anger and confusion. Throughout the day it is very easy for you to have different feelings at different moments. These feelings are usually connected towards your mood or tone throughout the day. Alternate to feelings moods are more long lasting. A mood can last an hour, a day, or a couple of days, whereas a feeling can last for a few seconds or minutes.

Chunk #6- Thinking Draft 1

Before this unit, I never really thought about my way of thinking. It was usually that I would do or see something and a thought would come to mind. I was not usually aware of the way I thought. My thoughts are; feelings that I have, emotions I feel, reactions to events and information. I guess my way of thinking is perceived from my experiences and that makes me think the way I do.

Accordingto R.D. Laing,"What we think is less than what we know: what we know is less than what we love: what we love is so much less than what there is. And to that precise extent we are so much less than what we are".
