I agree it's probably the point of the thread, but please allow me to expand my point - I have no
need to understand how someone will internalize. By definition, the process is unique to each individual.
I understand the difference between feelings and emotions. (For me) emotions are the responses to feelings. I can feel contentment and still not let an emotion be the basis for any action I may or may not take. Emotions simply have no value other than the expression of a feeling. Let it come, pass, and then move on with what's important.
