EMO? What's that?

VaZe here and today i wanna share on emo

What is emo exactly? the idea that got me thinking abt that is that this "emo" word appear a lot of times in my conversation with the brothers and my friends...
The dictionary defines emo = emotional = overwhelming strong emotions + the state of the mind is governed by emotions...

In today's youth lingo, emo = a state of isolation of oneself + coldness to others around you... Well, many of my brothers such as wayne, jasper and frans says that I, Vasily Alexandrovich Zaitsev (not my real name) also slumber into a state of emo many times... My brothers and friends (who are all guys) find that emo is an indication of nt being steady (or zai), nt being matured in thinking. This is rather true though....

My opinion on emo is that emo is essential and critical at junctures if emo = isolating oneself from other people... This may sounds strange but emo (isolating oneself) in times of overwhelming troubles are often the first step to solve problems... In the event of stress & problems, emo (isolation) helps to block out the distractions in our minds so that we can focus on God to find the root cause of the issue and appropriately find the best solution... However, this state of emo (isolation) should not last forever and should be used as a step to re-align our problems and thoughts to God, receive the truth and encouragement from God then get out there to wallop your problems... In short, emo (isolation) is a pause & think process

Over excessive use of emo (isolation) will lead to permanent isolation... It separates the person from the community and prevents any form of outsider intervention and help... Excessive emo (isolation) leads to the person being deceived that by leaving the community, they will be able have more concentration to solve their problems, which is NEVER the case... Thats why some people leave the church at times as well...

Another type of emo is the emo (influenced by feelings) type... This kind of emo only appears when one is overwhelmed with feelings such as when my grandfather passed away, i'm overwhelmed with grief and sadness... Yes, we do not deny our feelings, but prolonged emo (influenced by feelings) will lead to non-rational thinking and actions, leading to more mistakes to be cleared later...

I, VaZe, have a strong liking for love ballads and songs... so i often put up some of the lyrics of love songs as my MSN nickname... Sister Joa asked me why i put up such emo nicks... and i thought to myself in wat way is a lovely dovey nickname emo according to definitions? Things like "nothing's gonna change my love for you" is not emo but mushy... (Nt to penalize Joa sis), but the english must be used correctly nxt time to avoid complications....

In conclusion, emo (be it isolation or influenced by feelings) will happen to anybody who calls themselves a human... There is no IRONMAN who do nt emo...
Yet, emo MUST be used correctly:
1. To seek the Lord for comfort, encouragement and solutions
2. To pray to block out distractions, temptations and instability of the heart
3. And rarely for short periods of time... U do NOT SPAM IT!!

As I progress in life as a Christian, i met obstacles and i emo (isolation) at times to sort out my problems before i learn from mistakes and grow.. But as i grow, my capacity of handling problems increases and hence I emo less frequently and for a shorter period of time.. Thats why when u mature, u emo less as u're more able to handle problems and stress...

THEREFORE, LOOK BACK IN YOUR LIFE... If last time u emo for a period of time and now still the same, maybe its time to check on ur growth in character and do sth abt it... I am nt saying u cannot emo at all, but the period of time to emo shld be lower and lower as u grow...
