Special Feelings Time

So it's that special lady time of the month again, when I feel my feelings too strongly and everything gets madly blown out of proportion so I can no longer see if I'm having a valid life epiphany, or if it's just hormones.

It's crazy how incredibly easy it is to just lose all perspective sometimes, ESPECIALLY during this special lady time. And then you sit back and you look at the situation from another angle, actually play the game of putting yourself in someone else's shoes, and bam-o, you realize how ignorant of the actual situation you've been. It's unfortunate, but I suppose it's the nature of being oneself, because when you're only one person (which most of us are), you just tend to be completely obsessed with everything that's going on in your own life, and there are so many thoughts and opinions on things and feelings swirling around in your own head, just about your own life, you can just completely forget the importance, and in fact the existence of, really thinking about something from another person's perspective.

So I've had my little reminder of that. Hopefully it sticks with me beyond tonight, because I can't help but feel that people who are really compassionate, and constantly try to see things from all perspectives, must be some of the most fulfilled people.
