i think the best way to describe it is half way between a panic attack and a heart swelling. only... it's usually more on the side of heart swelling. this is one of those times.
it happens whenever i hear christopher's voice. or when i think of the future. or the past. it happens when i hear the love story of another. when i hear whistling or handclaps in a song. when i feel the love of my savior.
today it happened when i finished writing a paper i was truly proud of. it happened as i wrote a letter to my mother. when i opened my journal and used the pencil holder that sharon made out of french fabrics. when i saw the sun, even though it was after 5 o'clock.
sometimes it comes out of the blue, for no apparent reason at all.
what is this strange heart swelling?
love, pride, nostalgia, content?
all of those things or none of them at all?
