Emotion vs. Reason

Posted by: kendralee on: January 4, 2009

Journal Entry #5:  In this entry we were to write about what we priviledge more and follow: emotion or reason.  I like this entry because it makes you wonder, hm…what do I value more?  I think my perspective is somewhat more different.  I usually follow my intuition though recently I have followed the use of knowledge and reason when it comes to making critical decisions.

I think I follow my intuition and emotion rather than the use of knowledge and reason.  With emotion and intuition you are more likely to make more foolish mistakes, but I feel I have a good balance.  I have a good head on my shoulders and know when to use it.  Next year we all will have to use our sense of emotion and reason to determine the college we wish to got too.  I really want to go to UNC Chapel Hill, if I don’t get accepted I’ll have to use knowledge and reasoning to determine what college I want to go too.  I know that some other good colleges is ECU, NC State, and also Duke.
