Feelings follow behaviour

If this statement were true many of us would be in a lot of trouble a lot of the time. In most cases, feelings can follow behaviour only if they are rational, well-thought out feelings. However, feelings hardly ever really follow behaviour. Wait…what does this actually mean? I’m thinking that the feelings that overcome you is how you will behave? Is this right? Now I’m confused. I’m really tired right now and so not in touch with tech work…trying to get back into the groove of things.
Well anyway, how many times haven’t you wanted to smack someone or how many times haven’t you just wanted to do something outrageous? I’m sure these feelings have overcome us many times. Point is that if we were to act on our thoughts we would be likely to face some consequences…some good and some bad.  
Therefore, feelings don’t always follow behaviour. Some people never get a chance to express what they are really feeling. This can be bad and good (in some cases). Bad in the sense that many people end up suppressing their feelings and good in the sense that some peoples thought need to be suppressed. Whatever you are thinking though….it’s always a good idea to think about how you will deliver your thought to the next person to make sure that it is expressed properly. I sometimes (well most times) forget to do this and my feelings often follow my behaviour…oopsJ
