Hello. Brian and David and all.
Two cents worth, here.
I think EMOTIONS occur when there is biological influence on social
patterns.
As a general rule, we don't notice social patterns. Humans exist in
social patterns of value. (As Lila is the "judge" in the book. Our
social patterns are the basis from which we judge everything else.)
Emotions seem to be "new" personal social PoV's that are formed in
response to a biological interaction.
The part Brian noticed, the intellectual component, is also a crucial
factor, because as humans our AWARENESS of these emotions takes place
on the intellectual level.
Does this jive with your experience, David? The way you expressed
it, it might. "Interpretation" is an intellectual response, one that
creates new social patterns.
pax,
maggie
