Where's my inner artist?

I was checking out some other random blogs today. A lot of people just write about their feelings. They get so passionate about things. I'm passionate about things, too ... but I notice that I don't seem to express my feelings anymore. That is, I don't do it very much or very often. I don't seem to dwell so much on my feelings as do a lot of other people out there. Some of these folks seem to me to do a lot of feeling and not much thinking.

I'm very cautious about my feelings. I try not to react emotionally to things. I mean, I'm aware that I have feelings, but i try not to make decisions based solely on feelings. Maybe that's one reason I've studied philosophy ... I realized that I was making bad decisions based on whatever I happened to be feeling at the time. I figured there had to be a better way to go about leading this life.

Still, my feelings are very important to me. A certain amount of objectivity is important in decision-making, but it has never been my goal to become a robot. Our passions are what make life interesting. I'm going to work on expressing my feelings more. I should get a hobby that provides that kind of outlet. (Or is that why I started this blog?) Anyway, I'm going to work on it.
