Not mind reader, mind you! I mean I do not want to hear thoughts from people. A thought sometimes does not mean anything as it is a fleeting idea that zoom through your brain. Sometimes, they are harmless and meaningless, created by irrationality or erupted due to raw emotions.
What I want is a machine that can predict the person's emotion based on what I say or do or show her/him.
Imagine planning a surprise party for your beloved best friend and she actually hated the present or the crowd that you gathered in her house to shout 'SURPRISE!' after she arrives home. I want to know whether she/he will love it before I put the whole plan into action and avoid the sour/ disappointed episode.
Simple things like trying to help your sweetie or parents in their work or school but then it backfire because they think you are trying to show-off and barking on how to do their work.
Other things such as your good intention to be more caring or thoughtful and be there for them might just make you fade away from their world. They might just want to be alone without you interfering.
Other situations like missing out on your friend/ relative who have been all-time low and depressed might lead to an ugly picture. You will most likely want to know all the emotions inside him/her to know when to lend a helping hand to avoid anything bad happen to them. At times, a simple kind gesture can save a life.
If only this machine exists, but I'm just dreaming!
If you watched Click by Adam Sandler, you know what I mean when I say with this machine, we will not be leading a LIFE afterall. Experiencing emotions and people are what we do, instead of relying on some machine to tell us to be human.
