Choose whether and how to express?
Emotions are a way of representing ourselves to others around us. A person can immediately understand the feeling of a person through emotions. For example, when we see a person crying we can immediately understand that the person that is crying is hurt or is in pain. He or she can be sad about earning a bad score in their mid-term, but our reaction is that we are able to understand their feelings. Also, emotions can sometimes back fire also. Like in the instance of recent scandal in San Diego County, a married chief sheriff was caught dating another lower level officer. That lower level officer did not knew that chief sheriff was married, but one day she saw chief with his wife and talked to chief in an arrogant way. She expressed her emotions, but by uploading her and chief supervisors picture on face-book. Although, that officer got the picture at the time they were dating but the emotion of betrayal lead the lower level positioned officer to petition against chief justice. Overall, I would say that emotions are very strong feelings in today's life and they are used for expressing the feelings.

Hello there. I completely agree with you about emotions representing ourselves to others around us. Also agreeing with you on people immediately understanding someone through their emotions. Cry does usually mean pain or sadness but sometimes it can be good but usually its a bad thing. :/ Good job on using examples about the scandal to help others understand the concept. I also liked you last sentence because emotions in fact are strong feelings for one's life in the past, present and for the future. Keep up the good work. :)
