11. At the end of the movie, Joy learns that other emotions, especially Sadness, are also important. Why?
Joy learns that other emotions, especially Sadness, are also important because they have their own purpose and contribute to a person's overall well-being. Throughout the movie, Joy initially believes that happiness is the most important emotion and tries to prevent Sadness from taking over. However, as the story progresses, Joy realizes that allowing Sadness to express itself is necessary for personal growth, understanding, and forming meaningful connections with others.
Sadness allows individuals to empathize with others and understand their emotions, leading to greater understanding and compassion. It also plays a crucial role in processing and healing from painful experiences. By suppressing Sadness, Joy realizes that she is preventing Riley, the main character, from fully experiencing and understanding her emotions.
Joy ultimately understands that a well-balanced combination of all emotions, including Sadness, is essential for emotional well-being. By accepting and embracing Sadness, Joy helps Riley navigate through difficult emotions, leading to a more genuine and fulfilling life.
