With this being said, people do have a meaning in other people’s lives, but this does not mean that they all have a positive or negative effect on it. In the film Inside Out, directed by Pete Docter, Riley is an eleven-year-old girl who has the perfect life in Minnesota.

Emotions are what propel you forward to reach your goal, but what also stop you from breaking your limits. They are what weigh into our decisions and help lead us to the choices we forever live with.
