No Thought?

What is easier to dispose of, thought or feeling?

When you find that no other mental solution is available have you ever rationalized a thought into a feeling because it was easier to dispose of that way? Was the thought then complete or accepted?

Probably feeling. I have watched even feelers shut down their feelings and act "rationally" they usually feel very proud of themselves after.

It's pretty fuckin' hard to go on feelings without thought, the only time I can see it happening is sexual situations but even then I think it through.

I'm always thinking and not always feeling.

Hmmmm...

I'm curious about your motivation for this question, because I really can't come up with a worthwhile response.

No, I've never done that.

I've very often turned feelings into thoughts though.

No, because as I said feelers will often suppress their feelings to rely on "reason".

I approve of your quotation marks.

Very "reasonable".

I know people generally rationalize feeling into thought I was wondering if anyone ever relied on the opposite pattern and with the notion of supression where does one have greater control. Is it the same for T and F?

^That's exactly how I define the T/F decision when speaking to a layman. Which rules you?
