What Are You Feeling Today? Not Thinking, Rather Feeling! Can You Identify Yours?

Exhausted, frustrated/angry, in a great deal of pain, and weirdly, I'm feeling kind of strong today for still pushing forward despite my personal sky falling all around me for the past 2 yrs. Makes me think of the song "I'm Still Standing" by, Elton John. 🎶
 
I don't know.

P art of my wants to go home. I'm homesick and I miss my children. A friend was wounded today and I'm upset and angry and frightened.

A bigger part of me, though, is oddly calm about the fact that I might be here for a long time.

I feel comfortable here, among the death and chaos. I'm doing what I was made for. I belong here.

And that makes me want to cry.
 
Physically unwell and the emotions have followed down the path with the pain and myriad of physical symptoms. I feel emotionally overwhelmed and burdened, let down and disappointed, vulnerable and the "ick" that it brings, a bit sad about all of this and the current state of my life, very worried about finance, appointments, surgery, medical scenarios, etc...., and unsure about what to do with all of this in terms of doing the next right thing to help and protect myself.

I am very appreciative to know that I have a place to come and share all of this as I share it with no one else that is breathing. I'm trying so very hard to keep my chin up and soldier on, but some days are just too difficult for me.
