Are we troubled by our emotions?

皆、自分の感情で自分に振り回されて、眠れぬ夜を過ごしますか?
すがるように、愛している人の記憶を思い出しますか?
過去を思い出し、してきた罪や恥を数えて、呆然としますか?
自分で、自分を、攻撃しますか?

(Excerpt from Violet Evergarden "Ever After" [Book 4])

Does everyone spend sleepless nights thrown around by their own feelings?
Search for memories of their loved ones, as if clinging onto a thread?
Remember the past, only to count their sins and embarrassments, and be dumbfounded?
Does everyone attack themselves?
