There’s a clear difference between emotions and sentiments. A lot of people shy away from acknowledging and expressing their emotions because they don’t want to be seen as being sentimental.
Often, times women are often poorly labeled being emotional as though there was a fault there. We are all emotional beings; it is abnormal not to have any feelings. Emotions reflects our assessment of situations. However, this doesn’t mean we make decisions based on those feelings. You may feel sad about an event yet you may take practical and sound steps in dealing with the situation.
Being sentimental is acting based on feelings alone. You need to make sure you have truth and discretion to the decisions matrix before you can make sound judgment.
So be free to express your emotions, you are not being weak, you are only human. This is a key component of attaining self awareness and being sensitive to others.
