Answer the questions and find out what you listen to more – to the mind or feelings.
The opposition of reason and feelings is as old as the world. People have always been divided into two camps – some were convinced that in everything it is necessary to rely on common sense and hide their emotions under a polite mask, while others – that it is vital to throw out their negative and positive feelings. It is curious that even in the ascetic Middle Ages, each person could, without fear of condemnation, give vent to emotions during festivities and carnivals. In Rus’, it was also customary to express one’s feelings – with the help of songs, for example. What kind of genres did not exist – wedding, funeral, recruitment … During the performance, one could cry and wail to their heart’s content. However, time passed and little by little people began to believe that the manifestation of emotions (at least in the presence of strangers) is not comme il faut, and therefore be kind enough to keep a face in any situation. In 2011, scientists from the Netherlands conducted an unusual study and calculated the so-called tearfulness index in 37 countries. It turned out that cultures where it is customary to violently express one’s feelings are much more prosperous than those where one cannot even shed a tear.
