What would a functioning emotional philosophy be like?
   Philosophy with an emotional basis rather than a strictly
   logical/reasoning basis. Both incorporate parts of the other yet
   philosophies TEND to emphasize reason over emotion
   significantly. I wondered if it could be flipped and what it
   would look like.   I anticipate the very question to be
   considered absurd even to ask by most but I expect some to
   pursue it. I think it is a valid question worth investigating.
   === [Stoicim + asceticism] You've mentioned two excellent
   existing candidates for the OP. They're also two emotional
   philosophies which I've experimented with at times and found
   agreeable to apply at least in part. Useful stuff. ==
