Acceptance - I really don't know about that. It can be good & bad. Depends on when you use it & to what extent.
I can't say whether I would liked to be awed or not- it again depends.
Though curiosity is said to kill the cat, it's an emotion I cherish (how the hell can you be interested in life then?).
Desire, like curiosity, should be controlled.
Everyone ought to feel guilty over their bad deeds, so like it or not, it's necessary.
Obsession is very bad, so obviously, I would prefer not to experience it.
Pride is like acceptance.
Remorse like guilt.
Regret- I would be better off without it. Remorse is enough.
Shame like remorse & wonder like awe.

The rest is just right & wrong. I obviously like the rights & hate the wrongs.

Ah, yes, but people have differing views on what is right and wrong.

Is Ecstasy right or wrong?

It's a feeling...
Think super-high.
It's also a drug, from which you can become high, but no.

I know what it is and I was addressing my reply to nathanielandbartimaeus who said that everything else was right or wrong.

and clearly ecstasy for example, could go both ways depending on what you do in that state :ermm:
Oh, I did'nt notice ecstasy. Yeah, it too depands on the circumstances.

If you think about it, all of those emotions can be called 'good' or 'bad' depending on what you do with those emotions.

And even the favourite emotion question is arbitrary.
Yeah that's right. Still the rest are easier to classify as good or bad . Like jealousy, apathy, depression etc.

Why would apathy be bad?
Love playing devil's advocate.

I dunno why i say apathy is bad, just that, in this case, I am taking it has a trait - an apathetic person (type). Not something that's only shown sometimes. You - are - always - like - that sort of thing.

OMG, can't I explain a simple thing properly?

What's the point of living life or doing anything, if you don't care? You'll never do anything right.

Sure you will. Maybe nothing extraordinary, but you'll have to do something. And if you're truly apathetic, you won't feel too disappointed at your failures anyway.

Wow, you explained it so easily!
Yeah, that's what I meant when I said apathy is bad.

It's not that you do it wrong, it's just that, for me at least, when you don't care, it becomes so much harder to finish it, it takes longer and you're wasting part of your life being unhappy that you'll never get back again.

But if you make an effort to care, not only will it seem easier (once you succeed in caring) but you'll also do a better job.

I feel like I'm repeating my last post, but it'll take forever to check, 'cos this site is so damn slow, so forgive me!

You can get a job done apathetically. But you can't do it well.

And gotta hate boredom. Give me frustration or sorrow anyday, Boredom is like a 'Sorry for the inconvience. We will be back to you shortly. message from God.
I pray for the strength to change what I can, the inability to accept what I can't and the inability to tell the difference.

sure you can.

no, i prefer boredom to the other two. you can day dream if you are bored but you cant if you are frustrated or sad.
i tried. got told that i was being unreasonable so have decided to give up and let them do what they bloody well want to. have now had 'well done, you are seeing sense' said to me now. i am now just oh so apathetic its scary.
