As I've gotten older, I've realized how many of the descriptions of physical reactions to emotional situations that I thought were exaggerations or simple figurative speech have proven themselves to be possible with profound emotion.  Crying from happiness and shaking from fear are the two that come to mind.  I thought unimaginative people were just trying to emphasize a feeling using poetic language.  Now I worry that I haven't been feeling enough.
