Feeling the same way - unsettled is a good word for it. I've been dealing with too many major issues and right now, today, was a good day. But there is a lingering feeling of feeling out of sorts or unsettled. I appreciate your thoughts and especially your son's very succinct wording. As you said yourself - Bingo. Thank you to you both for putting things in perspective. ❤️

I am glad you had a good day - They help us forget the more difficult days. P

I so can relate to this feeling. I have been feeling it myself of late. I always want to understand why I feel a certain way; not enough to know the feeling but the origin seems important to me. But my recent daily angst for lack of a better word doesn't seem to have a specific reason behind it. Just a low hum of something in the background and when I search for a source I find everything is in good order. Perhaps it's an opportunity to reflect with gratitude on all that is working and let go of the concern that something else might be off? I must say it's reassuring when someone as "together" as you has these episodes. I appreciate you and what you have to say.

I love your essays, thank you for sharing such wonderful “food for thought” with all of us. You are truly a treasure.

And yes, some days / weeks can seem off balance. But it’s important that we have friends and family that we can share and connect with. 💙

My world seems so topsy-turvy right now. I can’t bear to read or watch the news and yet am drawn to it, lost my job, got bit by my dog and had major dental (all in 3 months). And yet, going to England and Wales, Antarctica and a local cruise with my amazing brother in the upcoming 12 months. I have a safe home, a good husband and money in the bank. Feeling confused and blessed
