The number (and varying degree) of emotions that run through me in single day are unbelievable! This week seems to be more emotionally charged than others. Like I am on an emotional roller coaster all day & night.
These are just some of the feelings that come to mind.
Happiness, anger, fear, wonderment, love, frustration, peace, unease, joy, curiosity, tired, crazy, giddy, worn, full, drained, beautiful, old, excited, silly, sad, lucky, blessed, calm, worried, optomistic, sarcastic, torn, admiration, mean, nice, scared, bold, brave, and that's just to name some!
I am amazed that one person could feel all of these different things in one day.
Absolutely amazed!!!
I was really starting to get tired of the ups and downs this week. Until the thought occured to me that without the downs, how do you recognize the ups? Do ups even exsist without downs?
And, I found my resolve.
This is what I know.
I know...to have JOY, there must be despair.
To feel courage, you must be afraid.
To appreciate health, you must suffer illness.
To harbor hate, you must feel the passion & intensity of love!!
To know peace, you must know turmoil or war.
To truly believe, you must face doubt.
Everything must have it's opposite, opposition in all things.
I pray that I may continue to experience all of the emotions God intended me to.
And embrace it, even when I want to run away!!!
Right now, I am Happy!
I love to be happy!
That is an emotion I would like to share!
Everyday.
what do you feel?
