GRAMMATICAL EXPLANATION
16 I LIKE TO EXPRESS MY FEELINGS AND EMOTIONS
Be yourself. A feeling or emotion arises from our memories and reactions to daily events. Our emotions are formed by how we think about our past and present experiences. We all try to explain our own behavior and that of others. Below you will get a chance to understand what vocabulary words are used to describe what you are doing, when you are “being yourself� or expressing your emotions.

DIALOG People and Feelings Lynn: Sometimes I don’t understand what people feel. I sometimes think they’re complicated, especially grownups. Tom: I understand what you mean by complicated, but life is full of different events and sometimes those experiences are what makes us what we are today. Ben: Yeah, being a kid is different for everyone. But we can all have good moments or bad moments. I for example can be very serious. Like when I have to study for an exam. Cathy: I think that we are all still growing and that we need to share some of our feelings with others. But we do not need to be shy when something is affecting us. Mike: Yes, if we need a specific help in something, all we need to do is what we are doing now. Talking and Socializing. Maybe that way one of us can help contribute and find a good solution to a specific need or problem that is affecting another.
