Happiness Can Be a Bad Thing?
Emotions always play a part in everyday life. That is just the way it goes when you are human. Since we have these emotions and sometimes they run free. There is always a positive and negative effect when we use our emotions at the wrong time.
An emotion that can be harmful and also positive would have to be happiness. When someone is happy they are always smiling and they usually joke. Happiness is mostly known as a positive emotion. A happy person usually puts others in better moods and it seems like they have everything together and they just enjoy life. Having happiness is everyone’s goal in life everyone wants to be happy with their life. For example when a person is happy they smile more which usually brightens others day. Also when you have happiness it is good for your mental well being. But, when there is a good side there is always a bad side. Happiness can also be a negative. It might appear annoying to others how happy you are. Even worse it can hinder your other emotions. If a person is happy all the time it seems like they never face sadness, stress, and fear. Sometime happy people are happy all the time because they do not have the same factors or outlooks like others. Constant happy people sometimes have a problem with sympathizing and understand people who are facing other sad emotion they haven’t faced before. Since the person doesn’t know how it is or hasn’t had anything close to it. It is very hard to talk to them about it and help. A happy may come off as being mean or unsympathetic because they don’t have anything to say and when they do say something it usually comes out wrong and hurts the other person that the happy person it trying to help.
All emotions have positive and negative effects. When it comes to emotions being able to know when and where to use them is a key.
