Which aspects do you think makes a person unique?

I think the most unique thing about humans is the way we experience emotions.

The fact that different things make us all angry, sad, scared, loved. While you may understand someone’s emotions it can be difficult to understand what triggers them, and impossible to understand how they feel them. And I honestly find that extremely fascinating.

I firmly believe that nobody’s experience is exactly the same where emotions are concerned. But if you can try to understand someone’s emotions in a situation you may be able to understand more about them and who they are as a person.

I feel like emotions, the emotions of others, are a big part of how I understand the world around me. I think this comes down to my disability, and the fact that I cannot understand the world completely physically. No matter how I hard I try, physically there will always be  things that I miss due to my disability.  But emotionally I am able to have a more complete understanding of the world around me. Man made ablesim doesn’t exist in the emotional world.

But just because I understand the world around me better through emotions, doesn’t mean that my emotions are easier to deal with.

At the minute I am dealing with anxiety over doing something that I know is important but scares me because it involves a phone call. I hate phone calls. No matter how important I know they aren’t I don’t want to make them. Annoyingly sometimes I get the confidence to make the necessary phone calls, but of course this never lines up to when I’m actually able to do that. And when I am able to do it, my anxiety acts up again.

What I can be sure of is my emotions don’t like me. But maybe that’s part of what makes me a unique person.
