Emotions are an important part of our life. Many things around us can affect our moods — a piece of music, a movie, a conversation or even the weather. For me, different things make me feel different emotions.
When I was in Grade Eight, I failed my math exam. The bad grade made me 1______ very sad and worried. I was afraid to tell my parents, and I even avoided talking to my friends. For several days, I felt lonely and upset. Then my best friend Lily came to me. She didn’t blame me for the bad grade. Instead, she sat with me and listened to my troubles. Her patience and care made me 2______ that I wasn’t alone. She also helped me analyze my mistakes and make a study plan. With her help, I regained my confidence. This experience made me 3______ that true friendship is one of the most precious things in life.
Music also has a great influence on my mood. When I feel tired after a long day of study, listening to soft classical music makes me 4______ relaxed. The gentle melodies can calm my mind and help me forget my tiredness. On the other hand, when I feel sad, I like to listen to upbeat pop songs. They make me 5______ energetic and cheer me up. I remember once I had a fight with my mom. I was so angry that I locked myself in my room. Then I played my favorite pop song. The lively rhythm and positive lyrics made me 6______ my anger gradually. After that, I apologized to my mom, and we made up.
Movies are another thing that can affect my emotions deeply. Sad movies like Titanic always make me 7______. I can’t help crying when I see the tragic ending. However, comedies like Mr. Bean make me 8______ out loud. They bring me a lot of joy and make my day brighter. Documentaries about nature make me 9______ the beauty and magic of the world. They also make me 10______ more about protecting the environment.
In my opinion, emotions are not always bad. Even sad or angry feelings can help us understand ourselves better. What’s important is that we know how to deal with our emotions. When we feel down, we can do things that make us 11______ — talk to friends, listen to music or watch a movie. When we feel happy, we can share our joy with others, which makes happiness 12______.
I also realize that we can influence others’ emotions too. A kind word, a warm smile or a helping hand can make someone 13______ loved and cared for. Last month, my classmate Lucy was feeling sad because her pet dog passed away. I gave her a hug and shared my favorite storybook with her. My small act of kindness made her 14______ a little better. It made me 15______ that we should always be kind to others, for our actions can have a great impact on their moods.
