LIKE DEFLATED BALLOONS

You know those deflating balloons you've seen, well, I feel just like one of those today. I cannot think of any specifics relating to it. Odd really. It's one of those days when I could cheerfully curl up in bed, snuggle into my duvet and drift off. the only thing that puts me off, is, I would be getting into a chilly bed and I would have to energise 'me' to warm it up. There's a single word for this; lethargy.

There is a way to liven myself up a bit, which I am going to invest in right now. I am going to prepare a cafetiere. A couple of cups of real coffee should definitely perk me up for a while. Long enough to create the evening meal!

IS IT OR IS IT NOT?

An exhibition I recently saw did not stir me, it left me cold, with no real interest. I got to thinking about this. Is a sensible lack of connection, a lack of interest, an emotion in its own right? 

A definition of emotion is ...

An instinctive state of mind deriving from ones circumstances, mood or relationship with others.

'Others' in this circumstance were inanimate objects with which I had no relationship.

'Mood'...it was initially one of curiosity which given the circumstances, changed to one of disinterest.

Based on the definition as given, my overt experience did not qualify as emotion.
