The document describes an icebreaker game called "Matching Emotions" where groups are formed based on matched emotions. Players are each given a card with an emotion written on it and must find the other members of their group by displaying that emotion non-verbally. Once groups are formed, they pose to show their emotion for others to guess. The game is meant to facilitate discussion about emotions, what they reveal, and how love is shown.
