your life must be very boring, sometimes you just got to jump into an adventure experience new thinks even if you don't know the outcome.
you can't always know what you'll achieve, will mean, if its possible, how to, the result, how it affects others and the long time consequences and thats the fun part about life.
what your saying is kind off stupid, because life is useless you don't know if theres an afterlife only by dieing you will know.
if you think logics you should kill yourself at this very moment to find out if theres an afterlife because life on earth is useless.
You don't understand - even in these 'adventures', can I not just assess the risks and possible outcomes of it, and make a choice based on that? Can I not think "These are my chances based on what I do know, and I'm willing to take that chance and accept a loss if it does go wrong"? Attempting to deal with everything in the most appropriate manner does not mean avoiding anything that could go wrong, that would be missing the point entirely.

I still dont understand why I should deal with my emotions logically? I believe people need a balance of reason and emotion. Life might be "better" if everyone lived life entirely through logic but it would not be as fulfilling.
You can go on living your life without any emotion, or attempting to suppress your emotion, but thats your life, do not tell me how to live my life.
I think you are getting stuck on the definitions of those words - what do you think dealing with your emotions logically means? An illogical and inappropriate way of dealing with your emotions would be to, say, needlessly insult people because you're not in a good mood. Or to be unwilling to do anything about a trauma or depression, and instead of getting help for it you just continue to live out your days while your problems affect you constantly by because you think you can handle them.
A logical way of dealing with your emotions means to resolve anything negative in the most non-destructive way you can, to try to see if the things you do are just a subconscious result of anything emotional, and to aim to be in a mood where you can be happy, calm, and rational.
