Take a moment in your life when you remember exactly how you felt. Think through all the details of your feelings.

Sweet Emotion—Take a moment in your life when you remember exactly how you felt. Think through all the details of your feelings. How did the feelings start? How did they develop? What happened to those feelings? Tell that story, except change every other factual detail. Develop a fictional story about someone who is not you, doing something that you were not doing. It could be a member of a biker gang in the 50s, or an alien in a distant future world—but keep the details of your feelings in there. See how the honesty of your feeling affects the otherwise fictional story.
