Feelings yes help you but I think only when they are properly railed as 
in the examples you posted, I was writing about feelings per se, they 
look only to satisfy needs those needs are 100% selfish and can go 
against other feelings; that is why I wrote in nature, meaning by 
themselves.

Example to clear my point: a wife and a husband are in the sea after 
boat sinking, and a helicopter sends a line, the husband freaks (panics) 
out and try to reach it stepping on her wife, this is pure feeling, 
triggered by the self-preservation instinct, 0% reasoning, it goes 
against love and guilt feelings and the reasoning/logic of the 
consequences or the responsibilities as a 
husband(protector/provider)/father.

A Feeling can be concurrent, deviating, contradictory, senseless, 
unpredictable, caprice, overwhelming, etc., and in all this states it 
follow the logic of satisfying itself, hence the need of guided logic to 
do the best for the person and as an ultimate good the ironic 
destruction of it for the wellbeing of another. This is when logic and 
all feelings collapse but 1, love(as 100% non-selfish), as I have 
accidentally proved is always the best logic of all at least the reason 
of all true good; unfortunately love only works for all when all follow 
its logic. Of course this is only my opinion.

Cheers.
