QotD: Feelings
Posted October 21st, 2003 @ 11:15pm by Erik J. Barzeski
Question: What's the strongest feeling?
My Answer: I think I'm going to go with hate. This is both a highly personal question, and an odd one to be asked, because I'm trying to give an answer that's not at all personal. I've been in love, I've come close to falling in love, and I think love is great. However, love doesn't seem to consume the mind as much as those few people who've hated. By hate, I mean the deep-to-the-core kind exhibited by people I need not name. Genocide is a form of hate, after all, and I've got to think that the feeling, especially when combined with power and possible afflictions of the mind, can render its effects far more powerfully than love, its converse.
Then again, this question, and my answer, are both widely open to different connotative interpretations. This is my answer. For now.

Apathy. At least for me it is. I just don't care about 99.9% of things. It's fun.

Fear or Love. I'm not much of a hater... I can't stay mad long enough.
