The title of this essay is, with all due respect, bizarre.

Sometimes life is harsh. We may have harsh emotions to enable us to battle the harsh conditions we confront.

If we had pleasant emotions all the time, we would be programmed, idiotic, cartoon characters with saccharine giggles and looks that exuded pastel prissiness

If we are in a fire. One may be anxious. Does that mean that one should consume valium. Of course not.

Life is not a succession of imbecilic tea parties frequented by muppets from Sesame Street
