You may think that when you're filling an official form of some kind u are simply doing just that.But no, various feelings are vaguely taking shape as u do so: irritation at the time wasted on all this paperwork, anxiety about making a mistake, the desire to be somewhere else➡️
even perhaps some childhood memories of grappling with homework at the dining table.

Another characteristic of feelings and moods is their remanence. Remanence is the partial persistence of a phenomenon once its cause has disappeared. Essentially, moods outlive the situations which justified or triggered them.

Witnessing a small incident – a child crying, a beggar - can suddenly plunge you into melancholy. From an outside point of view, such scenes can have no impact on us. Yet, inside us, they linger on. And who knows where they might take us.

*Disappointed* (for losing a job) and

Our feelings are reflected in our physical states: we feel heavy-hearted when we are sad and light and energetic when we are in a good mood. Feelings and moods affect the body, and influenced by it. Any form of physical activity tends to favor positive moods.

Ageing, is a rich source of feelings&moods,
Anxiety (I’m getting old)
Surprise (Already?)
Sadness (Pity to lose youth)
Regret (wasted so many moments)
Tenderness (Everything simpler, clearer, calmer)
Curiosity (What will happen)
Calm (I don’t have to compete, don’t care anymore)

Guilt:
When we refuse to help, we cause offence, even pain. We wonder if our refusal means we were acting in defiance of our values. An uncomfortable feeling, we feel sad because we caused suffering, and jeopardized a relationship which was important to us.

In the interests of survival, we are cerebrally ‘wired’ so our attention is drawn more rapidly, more forcibly, and for a longer time to situations likely to provoke negative emotions and reactions.

Positive feelings are rooted either in a physical sense of well-being (physical activity or good sleep) or in enjoyable social interaction

Feelings enable us to experience subtle sensations and perceptions. Which is why it's better to embrace our feelings without necessarily, or immediately, seeking to ‘correct’ them. Their coexistence within us brings texture, flavor and contradiction to our lives: i.e, humanity.

Ruminating is a ‘repetitive focus on the causes, meanings, and consequences of one’s depressed mood’. We also use the term brooding. Ruminating involves being inactive, sitting on problems instead of actively seeking to resolve or accept them.

Rumination facilitates a presence of the past: the past reinvents itself and masquerades as the present, taking its place. Suddenly we are no longer living. It is though we are listening to an old scratched record, endlessly playing over the same fragment.
