according to the philosopher sartre we are responsible for the choice of our emotions and feelings, and it is a thing than almost everybody thinks that is not true, but I say that it's totally true. So I do this quiestion to know if there are somebody who tinks like me, cause surely all the people who answer does not think like me. I will be glad to discuss it if my English permits.

Hi Adrian!
Just like you, I also believe we express our own emotions and feelings because we're humans and not machines being battery operated or computer generated. We say what we feel inside and utter things we don't like as well. I felt it very superficial if we are just being told what to say via machines and not speak our minds. I hope we have the same line of thinking and have the same message we like to convey to people.

I meant to say that we can choose our feelings and emotions and it doesn't seize us. We can always choose it from the beginning aoart from overcoming it, It's likely that we're saying the same, but I dont' understand the English fully.

I do think if we are experiencing something bad in our lives, we can choose to have joy in our lives.

It is true @checky99 . Regardless of how we are raised, education and learning experiences are key to making the right choices.
