Emotional Disconnection

Do you ever think that people will become so shut off from their own emotions and so detached from this part of the human experience that the minute they counter a person who allows themselves to feel, to be in touch with their own emotions, (the ones that can not fake what they feel or this side of being true to yourself or life in which is your reality) to feel pain, sadness, joy, whatever it is that the brain produces within the emotional side of being human and reacting how it is that the mind excepts and process the human experience, that instead of just seeing a human being with consciousness to the existence, all they will see is someone with emotional problems, or emotional disorders? Simply because they are in touch with their own consciousnesses in which allows them to feel, and be part of the human experience. Not all lives allows perfect ideals, or are circumstances given, in the cards of the game of life, those of which are ideal, sometimes their is sadness, or pain, and instead of being able to allow yourself the natural progress of healing in which comes with the nature of life and having an awaken consciousness, they just see a nut case, or someone with mental problems.... I understand mental disorders are real, those completely out of touch with reality, or the awareness of others of the cause and effect of meeting and encountering others, being part of the social experience... but their is also a difference between allowing yourself to feel to grieve to embrace pain and sadness, along with the joys in which after great pain, at least for myself becomes found in simpler elements of life.

As much as I wish I could take back the mistakes, and the rapes, I do not regret the amount of compassion and empathy I have learned in being able to relate to those who have suffered in this sadness. The awareness I have grown from the cruelties sometimes others instill. I do not believe that being mean or rude (unless a mental disorder or those who have been exposed to acts of rudeness or meaness reaction from the experience not always even consciously,) or wanting to hurt others is a nature of humans. I think it is only learned behavior and expected by those inflicted a pond survival, or learned from those who grew bitter and cold due to lack of love and nurture.
