How do you explain an emotion?

Comments

Carefully and with multiple clarifications as necessary.

To someone who's never felt them all?

[grayshulk]

Depends on whether they'll be in a position to start feeling them soon themselves or if they're to still going to have a distance from them for the long term.

With words no one has heard of, like untenable. Or you simply don't explain them at all. It's a bit easier that way.

Well, happy is like... sunshine warming your skin. Safe, bright, and only truly appreciated when there's been a lot of clouds.

Excitement is this delicious build up. It's like an orgasm without the mess.

Anger... shit. It's a volcano. You just fill up with this molten rage until it just bursts outta ya. No one walks away okay especially not you.

And grief is like getting punched in the gut really hard. You can't see straight. You can't breathe. Ya don't ever think that pain will let up. Eventually it does. You catch your breath and you go about your life but the second somethin' reminds you of it, you get hit all over again.
