Hi @jerrybanfield,
'on top of the world, down in the dumps'
sometimes it's absolutely necessary to show our emotion, we got our emotions to show, not to hide.
I live in Thailand many years now and I can say the Thais are the biggest masters of Not showing emotion. Teached as children every emotion to hide under a smile.
That's the true reason why Thailand is called the Land of Smile !
But how it looks inside of the Masters of hiding emotion?
It's sad, very sad... Believe me...
So it's for sure better when we can show our emotions.
Have a great day and best regards from
"The Land Of Smile"
Tom
