Expression And Emotion

[OKO]

Expressions are riddles, not thought transportation. If the expression's witness cannot solve the riddle, they cannot understand it's meaning.

I'm curious, have you ever tried thinking without expressing what you were thinking? In other words, there are expressions tinier than things like smiles or audible terms, like a movement or rest intended to let someone know you are present. It's all about intention. I'm curious whether you can stop intending any expression, at least for an amount of time you can confidently say you actually accomplished this. You'll have to be thorough, if you're one of those who demands more than one evidence. Another point, after you try that, is to stop intending to transfer your thought via expression. Expressions are not thought transportation. Once you express (orally, through the hands, etc.) it is up to your witness to understand... either they know the interpretation or not.

Another thing, and this has perhaps subliminal purpose, stop trying to hide what is already hidden. If someone demands your reason for being in their house (and you've broken in), freaking out doesn't preserve your cool. The truth is in your mind, stop trying to hide what is already hidden, perhaps they can't even understand your expressions (like leaning on one foot with one arm crossed). START BUILDING CONFIDENCE AND TOPPLE THOSE FALSE NOTIONS.

Also, have you ever experienced emotion (not assuming you have)? Well, awareness requires a means by which it is gained... a sense(s). Yes. Now, through which sense(s) do you have(have you had) awareness of any emotion? Maybe you were watching a movie and experienced it, with which sense(s)? The main point is that it only ever was something you were aware of through at least one of your five senses, and that awareness of it didn't venture beyond that. If you want to manipulate your emotion, manipulate either the senses which sense it or what they sense (the thing you call emotion). Perhaps an emotion is merely a slightly war air, and one moment becomes cold as it exits your nostril(s) at which point you now know it is air... but would be confused as to how it jumped from emotion to air if you had not understood this. Yes, emotion isn't at all emotion, it is merely something you sense with your five senses which you've given another name because you've misidentified it.

Maybe tell me what you think, especially if you tried the whole zero expression (the first exercise) and not intending to use expression as thought transportation (the second).
