The Art of Labeling Emotions

Emotions are like labels we slap on things we don't understand. We call it "happiness" when someone's smile looks like it's painted on with a crayon. We call it "anger" when someone's face turns into a thunderhead. We even call it "confusion" when someone just stares off into space, wondering if they left their keys in the fridge.

But have you ever stopped to think about the labels we use? Do they really fit? Are we just making this whole "emotions" thing up as we go along?

Let's explore the labels we use, and maybe, just maybe, we'll figure out what's really going on inside those heads.

Anger: The Label that's Always Angry

Love: The Label that's Always in Love

Neutral: The Label that's Always Meh

Labels, Labels, Everywhere: The Meta Label

Labels as Weapons: The Label that's Always Labeled
