One of the things that human beings need is familiarity.

We need to feel that this is "home".

This is the basis of acceptance, to accept that other people have the right to live too. To feel that they aren't "misplaced", to feel that you aren't "misplaced".

Life is a long path, with different directions, someway we must have confirmation that this is where I should be. There is no map to life, but there is a compass.

The compass is our feelings, they tell us about the place we are and what we should do at that place (depending on the feeling), the feeling itself bears the description for what it could be used for. Each feeling of course have different uses, you decide what it could be used for. Feelings also show what result actions had before, then other feelings show exceptions and so on. So you can get really far only by feeling.

What do you think about this?

I think feelings are indicators yes but a small part and can often be deceptive. They can be conditioned and used incorrectly if not filtered through rational thinking.

They are a sensory tool like hearing, taste, smell, touch, sight.

Just as in the case of taste telling us if something it bitter or sweet ultimately has no barring on the nutritional value of thing. So, like wise feelings are just a small part in our adds to making healthy choices. If one lets their taste for sweets control their consumption because their mouth likes it then they will very quickly end up with cavaties. Likewise feelings if not keep in check can cause cavaties in life as well such as lost opportunities, not growing emotionally where one should ect.

Feelings alone can not guide a person as they alone are subjective impluses. Healthy balanced living requires understanding and understanding is acheived through rational thought. Reasoning brings in the objective ability.
