In the last 60 minutes I've felt...
Loved
Frustrated
Forgetful
Foolish
Hopeful
A sense of lost opportunity
Excitement
Giddy
Longingness
Anticipation
Stress
Worry
Disappointment
Friendship
Reminisce-ness
Optimism
Ambition
Gratitude
Life is so full of experiences: good and bad. I'm so grateful that I can feel and experience so many different things. Although it can be a hassle, I wouldn't change my emotional sensitivity for anything. There is something beautiful about being in-touch with my emotions and able to feel them so completely. I hope I never become so calloused that I can't feel the good, along with the bad. I'm also grateful for my ability to treasure the peaks and work quickly through the valleys. I'm far from perfect at this emotional regulation technique but (I hope) I'm getting better everyday.
Life is hard. It is full of disappointment and frustration and stress. But it is also beautifully amazing. It is full of love and excitement and growth.
Treasure the good...
. ...learn from the bad.
Embrace. every. moment.

Lately, I have had a lot of different feelings, very up and down, but I think thats for a different reason then yours if you know what I mean. Gotta love hormones. Both weekends work great for us! You guys can pick!
Yeah, life has its ups and downs for everybody. There isn't enough love that goes around to make every minute of it very easy. I'm super proud that you are working at d.c.f.s. It must be intense and stressful to be out there in the real world..at a state job of all places. It's a great accomplishment already. Keep your passion for social work alive, so that way you can be the one changing the world; don't let them change you (too much). And of course ya better keep on stopping to smell the roses.
I like this intellectual, existential side of you. It reminds me of our happy times together. I believe I owe you a phone call. And some lunch! chaeLOVE.
