Sometimes I really just don't know how to feel...
Sometimes I just want to cry because of how happy I am (I don't know if that makes sense to any of you) and other times I just want to cry because of how frustrated, overwhelmed, and mad I am.
Sometimes I feel it all at once or sometimes I only feel one specific thing.
Sometimes I feel fearless and have this burning desire to jump off a cliff. Other times I'm as fearful as a kid and can't bare to think of the future.
Sometimes I feel like I can move mountains. I feel like I can do anything I set my mind to, accomplish any task, climb over any hardship, and have ample amounts of courage in the face of adversity.
Sometimes I feel like I expect way too much of myself and think that I am far greater than what I actually am. I feel like I'm setting myself up for failure.
Sometimes I'm indifferent. I tell myself let it go, what will be will be. Other times I want to dominate and make what I want to happen, happen.
Sometimes... I really just don't know and other times I feel like I have it all figured out.
Maybe I sound crazy? Well, I'll tell you something... all the best people are. Like I said, I don't have it all figured out. BUT if there's one thing I KNOW, it's that it's okay to have these sometimes. Life's overwhelming, exciting, frightening, confusing, hurtful, and much more all at once and sometimes not at all. That's just life. Maybe I'm just thinking about all of this because I read a psychology chapter today on emotions, but I can't help but write about it. Human emotions are mind boggling.
Whether you can relate to this or not, I encourage you to give it a moment of thought. Think of everything you've felt today... and imagine that all those emotions only happened in ONE day. I think it's pretty crazy. When I take a step back and think about it... I remind myself, "Okay next time you're having an overwhelming moment, remember that this is just ONE moment in all of the moments I will have today. This is just ONE emotion that I'm feeling right now out of the rest of the emotions that I have already felt and will soon feel before this day ends." Feel it all, feel nothing at all, whatever works for you. However, I encourage you to feel it all... let it all sink in... take in every emotion you're feeling at every moment. I guess I'll end my little rant with a cheesy quote... because I'm cheesy :)
