It's pretty tough to know how emotions act/react in a world without sin. Anger, for instance, is probably still possible (Eph. 4.26, and Jesus was angry without sin). Sadness too (Jn. 11.35) is not related to sin, but we're told it will not be part of Heaven (Rev. 21.4). My only point is that certain negative emotional states are not automatically connected with sin and may still have a place in a perfect world.
