Does the heart actually hold emotions?

If your heart's beating faster than normal I believe it might cause pain that creates tears. In terms of happiness I'm fairly skeptical. As far as I know the your Nervous system controls emotions.

The heart pumps blood. By opening if you mean the valves which help move blood around the body then I doubt it. I'd assume they'd just open at a faster rate and not increase in size itself.

The heart doesn't control emotions. Movement or things contributed by the heart that are recognized by the nervous system could cause emotions I suppose. If you want to look at it that way.

I'm not expert so don't heed to much attention to my rambling.

Could this body organ called, "the heart" actually open so wide that it brings on forth unknowing tears and emotions unknown to us? Is this an a swelling of emotions brought forth from a GOD given personality trait?

When my daughter walked across the stage (Texas A&M) to receive both of her degrees, warm blood creased by body and ran out as tears.

Who made this time table of life? To love, to hold, to let go, go forth, move on, going blind without her, who to hold? Can I have her back? If so, when.

I am proud of you Lauren. GOD I MISS YOU! A WHOOP ANDa' GIG 'EM - did I say that right?

LOVE MOM


Welcome to PF :smile:
I'm happy for you and your daughter, though methinks you may have allowed yourself to get too excited. But, I suppose this is what mothers are sometimes good for. As far as the blood goes, the only experience I have with something like that would be following a bite from a Fer-de-lance snake.
