Sunday and Monday

Mar 10, 2008 - 14:57 PM PST

I woke up yesterday and for just some reason, I felt awful. I felt like I couldn't sit still, feel happy, laugh. Just overall, annoyed with being contained inside my body and all I wanted to do was yell, cry, anything to let out this feeling. Instead, I knitted and watched the Law and Order marathon which always seems to be on the television on some channel.

Today I woke up. Its Monday and usually Mondays just seem to be awful because of work and class and basically just having to get back on a schedule. And today, I feel great. It was beautiful out and work was bearable. There was no reason for me to feel any different.

Sometimes I wish I could understand why I feel the way I feel. If I can't even comprehend my own feelings how am I suppose to comprehend someone else's? Maybe it is easier to understand other people better than yourself. Maybe I can't understand anyone else if I dont understand myself first?

Wow, this is weird. I just had this kind of conversation last night. And I think that its ALWAYS easier to sort out other people's feelings than your own. I mean, how can you expect to know what you're thinking when you're clouded with self-doubt, a limited perspective, and a biased opinion?!? I think the hard part is admitting to yourself that other people will get you more than you could ever get yourself. And then you need to accept that you WILL be able to understand someone else's feelings before your own. I think the real question is why its so hard to accept that you don't know what you're feeling. I hate that. When I feel like suddenly just angry and sad and deep and pensive all at once or something...but I just don't knwo why ,or really what it is. I can't ever let it go....so I just mope around until the feeling goes away!
