We can analize are feelings to the end and still never know what they are ment. feelings are somthing bigger than our thoughts they are our actions. Our actions based on how we felt at that given time based on other occurring actions of our daily life. We are who we are based on us and our enviorment in a reoccuring cycle. Sometimes it's a good cycle and somtimes it's a bad cycle. Our thoughts are different in each one of us. But there's always a reason for us to think. Thinking can be used as a helpful gide or could be used against us if we are angry or have problems to be worked out. Bad emotions always come back to us in the end, so it's best not to hide from them. I feel there's no real good definition for emotions but if you take all of what I've writtin above and swished it around backwards and forwards and all around you would understand emotions. I feel it is that complicated

Emotions are complicated. Emotions are individual expressions of ones own consciousness. That is why one laughs and another cries when one dies. There is a clasification of types of emotions and 6 billion consious minds all of which express a reaction to a stimulous. The end result is a complicated cycle of movement of emotions that evolve society in time.
 
.I agree with your statement that our emotions are bigger than our thoughts and they are influenced by our actions and environment. Emotions are complex and can be difficult to fully understand, but it's important to analyze and acknowledge them in order to understand ourselves and our reactions to different situations. It's also important not to hide from our emotions, as they will eventually resurface and can be used as a guide for personal growth. It's true that there may not be a clear definition for emotions, but by considering all the factors that contribute to them, we can gain a better understanding of ourselves and our experiences.
