the kids were great, and i started a new disciplinarian strategy, so hopefully it starts getting both the kids and i on the same page (cross your fingers and pray!)
then some fun phone conversations from friends and family :) yeah!
but some things these days in life are just really frustrating and upsetting, yet are really, really sad, and i was talking to Katrina about how to be sad - as we both grew up in families where getting angry is much easier and is the only emotion that is heard, because if you're sad or hurt, no one cares unless you express it as anger.
so i started thinking about this song as i was talking to my sister. i began listening to punk music when i dated my high school boyfriend, and since he loved this CD, naturally i listened to it all the time. as i watched the video i so found myself going back and forth between relating with the sad kids in their bedrooms, to the Tom (lead singer) who's screaming into the microphone and jamming out on his electric guitar, and was just kinda shocked how that's kinda how my life was gone. i was sad, scared, and hurt a lot as a kid, but it wasn't super safe for me to express it. then my mom got sick and dad got a job far away, so no one really had time to take care of me, leaving me to do it myself, and now im the one reaming on my guitar. but i love how he talks about all the things he wishes he could do or be, but yet talks about how he's so frustrated by the limitations of the world...which is SO HOW I FEEL!!! and so the song is appropriated titled "I Feel So" - a thousand different emotions, yet really helpless and powerless with lots of things...
i don't know, but the video and this song brings that out and makes me think about it...no real moral, but i thought i'd share the video anyways :)
