Emotion.

"If facts are the seeds that later produce knowledge and wisdom, then the emotions and the impressions of the senses are the fertile soil in which the seeds most grow." ~Rachel Carson

I've told myself that I'll try to be in a positive frame of mind this week leading up to the birthday. Can one manage one's feelings in that way? I think so. Been struggling today with overall grumpiness brought on by crazy people... actually just people. Sometimes I just don't like being around people. 

Sometimes I do. Had lunch today with one of the girl people. Talked about life and parents and work and guys. Much laughing and serious talk and possibilities. I've said that they keep me sane. It's just very true. 

Ups and downs today. Am just trying to be aware of how I'm feeling and how my moods affect me. 

Happy Wednesday all... 

peace,

Ren
