My take it that a "deliberately and personally chosen emotional offering" is an example of being in your head (intellect/mental based). As such it does not represent any of your authentic emotions. Rather, it is a display for benefit of those around you. In a similar vein, "reactionary emotional reaction" is an ego or trauma based display and does not represent your authentic emotions either.

What is most authentic is to just 'Be' with no blockages or unresolved damage to distort your expression of self. For those with emotions, emotions will spontaneously arise automatically in response to how compatible (in alignment) your inner being is to the environment you are currently in.
