As to the OP question, I’ll buck the trend here and say I do get bored. But then I’ll soon get lost in my thoughts. If I have something to write on (i.e. to express my insights), then no.

I rarely feel bored because I'm always doing something. I try to stimulate myself, even when I'm at the public transport and it's full of people I read a book, I need to move, mentally.

Thank you for bringing this up. It had been my suspicion that despite the p…Read more

I agree with your own definition, @bera! (Not whoever says emotions are mental states . . .what in the world?)
I think pain and pleasure are sensations and fear, joy, shame, anger are emotions.

It is. 🙂

I think that :
Emotions are caused by an emotionally triggering stimulus (no idea how to define it differently :)) ) and usually cause sensations that are felt in the chest/stomach area.
