Looks like it should work, though python is sensitive to spacing, so you may want to clean up the extra spaces to see if that was it. I ran the following script and got the desired behavior:

#!/usr/bin/env python3
Feeling = input("how are you?")
if Feeling == "Great":
    print("nice")
else:
    print("i am sorry")

This code is absolutely fine. Check it once again, you might have entered a lowercase or uppercase input in console. Python is a case sensitive language.
