We are not distinct from it.
¡SENSATIONS!
Comes out at you, fleeting
linked to your body;
The body– lived.
| Emotions |
Directed towards –> something
Based on culture<–>beliefs.
The body as source that expands in its world that is dasein's.
{ m o o d }
works in the background of experience
changes the way something appears to you
m o o d– elusive and difficult to describe. Expressions like "seeing the world through rose-tinted glasses" or responding to a "how are you?" from a close friend by describing "feeling blue". All appears to be vision based. We let our m o o d be dictated by changing wavelengths we call color and often judge them as illusions. And yet, this dasein does not look out of his window and sees things as different shades of blue when sad or bursting red when in a bad m o o d or romantically rose-tinted when nostalgic.
Everything appears just as vividly from one m o o d to another. Cinema betrays us in that regard, it does not reflect our being-in-the-world, but instead projects its own as an illusion separate from our being-in-the-world. If we see a sepia tint on the screen simultaneously with music that we've been conditioned by our prior experiences (culture-beliefs) to empathetically feel– then the relationship becomes reinforced and tied together to project a sensation that understands the phenomenon as a united artistic or informative thought. Top it all that with sound effects, choice of cuts and gluing scenes together, it all becomes a bottom up mosaic inwards, fleeting outwards.
Sensations appear the most fleeting, followed by | emotions | which lasts as long as one would measure with the word "moment". M o o d on the other hand appear as impure as cinema is an impure art. M o o d takes from the sensations and | emotions | that it influenced prior and shapes its own palette. Color appears the intuitive metaphor for m o o d but when all different kinds of shades get mixed in, eventually color becomes a brown, almost blackish display of mush– black, thought of as the absence of color. And even if we take it using physics, where the opposite presumes to happen, the uniting of all colors brings about white (presumably the culmination of all colors).
We cannot think of m o o d like this. M o o d acts not as a spectrum that gets added or negated to different extremes, m o o d acts as a silent precursor that interacts bidirectionally within the patterns and motifs of this mosaic. Attempting to untangle it would be just as useful as trying to figure out what the make up of our brain contains all the way down to its respective atoms.

Instead, what needs to be done requires a more holistic approach, much like the disciplines biology and psychology take foundationally. Each dasein must take its being as being-in-the-world and focus its ontological questions on m o o d phenomenologically. For dasein understands itself more as it relates itself as being-towards-death before sensations come to link the | emotions | evoked from apprehending the concept of being-towards-death.
All this worked behind in the background of m o o d, silently elusive and difficult to describe. Perhaps one shouldn't try to describe it and instead be aware of it as one encounters time and its unity with one's being-in-the-world. M o o d manifests itself just as quickly as thrownness, projection, fallenness, and all the other important jargon Heidegger takes as the characteristics of dasein. All that remains that Heidegger leaves us to? The body's relationship with being as being-in-the-world. To dwell on our time-linked-phenomena– aware that sensations, | emotions | and m o o d all come together mosaically yet also act as distinct sub-entities that relate phenomena with universals through the body. All this culminates to a united oneness to the world that we are indistinctly a part of.
