Don't be in too much control of your emotions. Few things will seem funny, there will be little reason for happiness in a broken world, love will be very shallow. When you are in complete control of your emotions all you really feel is emptiness, you don't feel the radiant vibrancy of deep emotions. Yes you have to be in control of your emotions to a point, you can't through temper tantrums when you get upset, you can't cry your eyes out over ever little thing. However taking too much control leaves you with shallow emotions or emotions dictated by your mind. There needs to be a balance between controlled emotions and uncontrolled emotions. Remembering God and what He's given us is a good way to control your emotions when they are getting out of control. When you're angry remember His forgiveness, when you're upset remember the hope He brings, when you're disappointed remember what matters. Then when you get too controlling over your emotions remember to relax and just be in the moment. I can't tell you what the right amount of control for you is but I can tell you it's important to find out.
