If we all behaved logically, a lot of our problems would be solved (and others created, I guess). But emotions are too powerful and get in the way. Always will. I guess the best we can hope for is that we realize our emotions and try to find that good medium where we can control the crazy emotions for the sake of logic, but allow ourself to have the emotions that are good and helpful.
