I can honestly say I have been all over the emotional spectrum today.

I have felt happiness. I have felt excitement. I have felt loneliness. I have felt pride. I have felt disappointment. I have felt anger. I have felt hopeless. I have felt sad. I have felt remorse. I have felt guilt. I have felt abandoned. I have felt grief.

Several of the emotions came from reading a “Post Secret” secret. It reminded me of a terrible time in my life. A time where I felt totally alone. I tried to tell the person closest to me at the time but was blown off. So I didn’t try again to share with anyone. And I still carry that pain with me though the cause for it has long since passed.

At any rate, I posted a comment on the Post Secret website. I don’t know if it will get posted. I don’t really care if it does. It was nice to “say” it. And to know that other people have felt something similar to what I felt then.

The rest of the emotions were the result of something that seems trivial now. I’m always amazed how I can get worked up and totally lose perspective of what’s important and what’s not. And what amazes me more is how the universe seems to know that I’m focusing on the little things and gives me something that pulls my sight back on to what is important and what isn’t.

I feel gratitude.
