I could have continued after;
Humans use the concept of "meaning" to allow themselves the relative comfort of simplicty in decision making and problem solving. There is really only context, purpose and result.How we interpret those three elements becomes MEANING.
by saying
this is how we derrive our system of values.
OUR EMOTIONS proceed from our values.
We often, however, think we should only follow our emotions __because they are somehow more real__than our intellect while completely ignoring
the source of our emotion/value system in the first place!
