I often get asked “How do you feel” as part of our daily chat with friends. I normally say “Okay” or “Good”, without having to delve into my emotional household.
If somebody really wants to know, like a partner, I find it difficult to answer the question on the spur of the moment. I am more of a thinker and I don’t have fast access to my feelings like some people - they seem to be at a different level of consciousness. I need some kind of special key to get there, and when I’m there I need ages to unravel them, take them apart and describe them. Funny thing is, I’m faster at decoding other people than myself.
Of course if my heart or gut is just being kicked to pieces by some late intensive experience or I have opened the flood gates to some feelings (like from my Heart Healing Tour), its different.
I thought I would try to express the situation in a couple of words. It’s a bit tongue-in-cheek but it sums up how some of us men are built.
Its called “How do you feel”.
