Instinct, Emotion and Intuition

Emotions are spawned by instincts. For example, fear is an emotion created by the fight or flight instincts, as is anger. Most emotions, you could say, come from the survival instincts of humanity. To go with this, there must be other instincts that drive us, but such definition of instincts is a topic for another day. Emotions are spawned with as little explanation as intuition- they are present when our instincts set them into motion. They are generally motivations with which to save ourselves. Intuition is generated in the same way that emotions are generated, it is brought about by our instincts relating to how we survive, as opposed to why, but nonetheless it is generated by instinct. Because intuition and emotion are created in the same way, and provide the same function, they might be assimilated into one category. Emotions and intuition are generated by instinct so that we might survive. Because of this similarity, it might be said that intuition is in fact emotion, only with a slightly different form of action. Hence, the idea that there is only one form of thought based on instinct is solidified, as logic is combined with emotion at the joint of intuition.
