Someone asked me the other day, “How are you feeling right now?”
She was referring to my upcoming journey to the east coast. And in that moment, I had no words to describe how I was feeling. My answer to her was, “I don’t know how I am feeling.”
That answer didn’t mean I’m not excited about this incredible opportunity. The truth is, I don’t know how to describe my feelings because this is entirely new to me…a journey across America in an Airstream Bambi. Sure, I’ve dreamt about this for a long time but I didn’t know how or when it would happen. And now that the time is here, I have no words.
I don’t have any expectations about how things will be. But I have a lot of hope. I think that’s the feeling I’m experiencing. Does that count?

“I know nothing…” Well, now that I can relate to 🙂
Thanks, Jesse! 😄
Hope / Hopeful is a wonderful feeling. Especially so, if it returns after a long absence.
Not knowing … is also a (very) acceptable answer.
Thank you, Sam…for validating my “feelings.” 🙂
They are VALID.
VALID they are.
