Makes Me Wonder

Emotions. They're so strong that sometimes I wonder that are we controlling our own fickle emotions or are they controlling us? I see people do things out of love, hate, and even grief. It seems like it's those emotions that are telling them what to do. Instead of acting on their own, I see people using their emotions as a guide. Sometimes I feel my emotions taking over me as well. There are times where I just have to give in and I end up doing things out of fear or out of grief. I feel as if those emotions are washing over me and pulling me into their grasp. And the worst part is that I can't do anything about it, I'm weak and I stand there swaying in the wind, letting my own feelings take over my life. It takes a while, but soon I recover and I know it won't be long until those emotions come around and take over my life for another short while. It just makes me wonder how lifeless emotions can control me even more than people themselves.
