About Emotion

I am celebrating the following sentence since it rests in my heart and mind from a wall as described in the film 'Amelie':

"Sans toi, les émotions d'aujourd'hui ne seraient que la peau morte des émotions d'autrefois" (- Hipolito).  Without your existence, today's emotions would be no more than the impressions of yesterday's (cited from Hippolytus, and translated by Helen Ree).

Emotion itself has no sense of eternity but executes precious/momentary spare in time. When you guys live and have been living in a different space for a long time in reality, a virtual share touches your emotion.  At the same moment, practicality is yours to care for with it.  

On the other hand, the sentence is borrowed from a figure in Greek mythology: Hippolytus who got accused of having raped his stepmother, then killed by his own father because of the false accusation.  In such a crime, his stepmom Phaedra kills herself out of guilt.  This is a cult about a sacred love ruined by a profane love.  When the above sentence is originated from such a complex story, and then the emotions are always considered to be searching for their extreme pleasure.

Emotion is for pleasure of ideas; consequently it also contains its opposite side.  Let us decide which side we like to step forward to.
