Kate Winslet smiling in a movie for a change. (i love her)
Dawson was not such a great crier. awkwardSmile.
do you feel happier?
you should.
Laugh.
Laugh out loud.
again, do you feel happier?
you should.
although these actions are forced, you still experience the same biological actions of chemicals being released causing a change in emotion.
Isn't that amazing? Instead of just thinking positive, you're laughing positive and smiling positive.
I am currently taking a class about child development in education: EDHD 5003 taught by Richard Rodgerson. I recommend this class to everyone, not just future educators.
In lecture today we discussed emotional responses such as crying, laughing, blushing and smiling. All things I frequently do. Often times all at once. Totally Embarrassing.
I believe that these four things are very strong markers of humanity(I am not saying that they do not occur within other species). They are such genuine responses. Blushing and crying are so hard to fake, unless you're kate winslet. Smiling and laughing on the other hand are easily to fake, but often times when that happens you can tell.
It is healthy to express your emotions. keeping things inside does not help. Let it all out. Although maybe you shouldn't cry during lecture, that may cause the intellectual dreamboats and I to feel uncomfortable. Laughing, blushing and smiling are most acceptable classroom emotional responses.
