To the OP
 
tl;dr
 
But if it floats your boat do it.

This is so obvious and I can't understand why others are unable to see this  


 

 
In my experience, if you come across something like that, it's generally because sharper minds than yours have already considered it, and discarded it, because you haven't really thought it through.
 

To say that negative emotions can make our lives matter to us in good ways or that our positive emotions can make our lives matter to us in bad ways would, again, make no sense. 

 
Sadness and anger might be considered 'negative emotions'. They might be induced by seeing the plight of people less fortunate than yourself, and drive you to do some charitable work. That would be a positive in your life, and in the lives of others.
 

Now, I wish to be a composer

 
So you've said, many, many times. I think you need to wish for something a little easier to achieve.

You say that these sharper minds know it is a fact that our negative emotions can, in fact, allow us to experience the good qualities of life (make our live matter to us in good ways).  I'm sorry, but this still doesn't make any sense to me and it's still not clear to me:
 
A positive emotion cannot allow you to experience the bad qualities of life and neither can a negative emotion allow you to experience the good qualities of life since this would be no different than saying that a positive charge can be a negative charge or that a negative charge can be a positive one.  This makes no sense. Therefore, all famous artists and composers who have used their depression and misery as an inspiration for their art weren't living any sort of good life at all.

Said all I'm going to say Matt.
 
As usual, best of luck, see you in few months no doubt.

Yanno how when you posted this same thread yesterday it got deleted almost immediately?
 
Maybe you should have taken that as a hint.

I already have, but I still don't care.  All I care about is sharing this theory and discussing it since I am fed up with my inner light (positive emotions) being thrown out and dismissed as something trivial.  It is time I spoke my mind to the point where my arguments are plausible.  I think I have finally achieved that goal.  But in the future, I will learn how to compose and make music.

Relevant?

"Brief"
 

Lawyers don't know the meaning of the word either.  Heck, they call a 300 page document a "brief!" 

BTW - There's nothing wrong with wanting to discuss your points of view, only your choice of venue to do so.
 
You are a few levels below things with your thinking.  There are many levels to reality, like an onion.  Anytime something does not make sense it usually means you are not at the correct level to understand.  I would suggest you try to find a community that discusses things like NLP (where you'll actually find that there is NO "good" or "bad" just events and how you respond to these events is what's important) or energy work websites (which will talk a lot about raising your vibration by only surrounding yourself with positive things and people).
 
The Coffee House is neither of those places.  Happy hunting!
