Dear Cow, "Power" is a strange thing. Some consider it something to wield over others. Some consider it strength. I don't think it's an emotion. It evokes emotion, and exercising it certainly causes emotion.
To me, "power" is standing up when beaten down. It's personal. It's asking life, "Is that all you got?" Power doesn't apply to other people, for me. It's between me and the world. I may get slapped around and beaten down, by my own choices or happenstance, yet I can stand up and live on. That's power.
