Lucy Swindoll asked her brother this question. I saw it and thought it was an interesting question. Of course, I love questions and I love to ask them and mostly like to hear the response. So, I ask you - What is your favorite feeling and why?

I think my favorite feeling would be 'contained'. Maybe better words would be 'at rest', 'peaceful', 'calm', 'safe'... I like crawling under the heavy covers and pulling them up tight to my chin or nose and turning down the dimmed lights to darkness. I imagine God's Arm over me and everything else is shut down. No more worries. I can't stand drama. It doesn't need to be that hard. I deal with a boss that makes things bigger than they are. I shake my head (when she isn't looking) and send a prayer. I have a little brother that is a huge worry wort and gets dramatic about things. I keep thinking that I have 10 years on him and maybe he will mellow out or not! I do have those feelings of angst in me but I try to keep the outer layer calm. I do go quiet when there is turmoil about or if I am in pain. Keeping contained or calm is my coping mechanism. Don't get me wrong, I am very passionate and I have some majorly strong feelings and they do walk about aloud. I do have my moments that I am out of control. I do think that they are less as I have grown up. {wink wink} But like we have uncovered I am still very much a girl with brainy moments. I am a quiet person and I believe in being a good neighbor. I have been an apartment dweller in a building of 8 where it was more like communal living. I lived in someone's else cigarette smoke and violent rampages. Yelling makes me shut down. All this is what I call 'living outside your box'. I believe the only thing you should do outside the box is creative thinking! Yes, my favorite feeling is 'contained'.
