It's ours. Our eyes can only judge others by only the pre-conceptions and the judgment based on the appearances we perceive. However, someone can be more influential and better than us, but as a result, we fail to measure our own capacity and it leads to our downfall. Such phenomena are also explained by the science. The amygdala, part of the brain is the responsible emotional response when one feels strong emotions related to a thing, living or non-living.

The amygdala releases certain hormones which make us feel stress-free. However, it also clouds our logical reasoning, thus, one tends to seek truth, kindness, concerning and caring values rather than looking for a radical sense. To feel the love and affection towards other souls.

Or the character, rather, physical appearances are very well explained by our elders and in the religious and spiritual homes. It feels as a disgrace that our India, once known for its morals, respect towards nature and elders is losing all of this to a modern mindset and increasing pride of money. The same way we can have different combinations like conscious vs subconscious, physical vs psychological, fact vs intuitions or guts etc.

Here in this essay, we are talking about reality vs emotions, beliefs. We will always find people of both nature, some are practical, hides their emotions. On the contrary, some are far away from logic and reality and take decisions based on guts and personal, social or religious belief. In both cases, people are shaped by their past experiences, present suffering and future worries.

A person who is practical in life thinks more about logic before emotions must have gone through a difficult time with emotions. They might not have the ability to handle and cope with emotional situations. Over the time emotional burden takes over then and end of the day either they get traumatized by the constant pressure of emotional failure or they hit the rock bottom and bounce back to life.

This time they are ready to face life right on, but they might not choose emotional approach towards life. It can be a good or a bad thing too. It all depends on person to person, there is no golden rule. Practical people can face problem in life because of the absence of emotions. All H. Jackson Brown Jr.
