You guys ever pay close attention to when you get emotional, and try to use logic to calm yourself down? It's like emotion is seeing the world through distorted sunglasses, and even though you try to be reasonable, it still feels like the world is on fire thanks to your emotions and you can't help but give in to the emotion.

Maybe this is what the buddhists were talking about. Normally, it's accepted we have to use a combo of logic and willpower to stop ourselves from acting crazy when emotional, but maybe the buddhist approach was the correct one all along
