Feeling

Have you ever had that feeling when you walk out into the sunshine and realize exactly how bright it is? How warm it is, but especially warm on those dark bits of graphic on your tee? When you can put your music on shuffle and appreciate anything on there, just because it's art and art makes the world beautiful? Where should that go? What do we do with that feeling? And, while I'm on the subject, is it bad to "bottle up" good feelings? I know it's common practice to approach advising others with the ideal that we never hold on to the darker spectrum of emotion: hate, anger, fear, love, sadness, depression, bitterness, cold (did you catch it?). It's all trash and lies, but nobody ever talks about bottling up those emotions that we want to hold on to. If anything, let out the negative emotions and bottle up a smile. Hold on to it for later. So when you're not sure exactly how bright the sun is shining, you can whip out your bottle and measure the warmth of the graphic on your tee. And when you can't seem to find the right song to listen to, unload some suppressed childhood memory of comfort or a peaceable evening to make every song the right song. I need a bottle. Everything gets away from me. I live now, but I wish I could bring yesterday with me. I feel like it just follows me around and reminds me it's there. Not to help. Just to be. We should all just be. And enjoy our respective bottles. Good night.
