what if your eyes close


what gives emotion credibility? is it the ability to reproduce that emotion time and time again .. is it repetition that assigns credibility? or is it hindsight? the ability to reproduce a familiar emotion in a situation you recognize as more relevant than the first time the emotion was produced? 

does an emotion need to be creditable? does it need to be justified to be felt .. of course not. but if we do not need to justify our emotions, weather stagnant or evolving, then how do we find purpose in what we are pursuing? 

i'm not asking that emotion be rational, and maybe credibility is to much to ask as well .. but what i am looking for is what causes this emotion and what does or does not happen to make us believe in what we are feeling?

is it someone who acts different so we avoid transference and so feel the same emotions as new ones? or do we look for familiarity so as to profit from this same transference? 

this - it is clear- varies depending on what is being sought after. 

or is it that we need to experience familiarity without the temptation of transference? and maybe it is that lack of blending memories and people within that familiarity that makes things right for us. maybe it is feel familiarity with someone who is not and not needing to transfer past experience onto this person to make yourself comfortable. 

or could it be that genuine emotion can only be felt when one is completely devoid of familiarity? 

and how can we know?
