oh man.
tell me if this ever happens to you.
when i hear a song that reminds me of a really happy time,
or i am overwhelmed with love for someone,
or i’m up late at night by myself looking at old pictures,
i get an actual physical feeling in my chest– like my heart is swelling. it’s the same feeling that you get in your stomach on a roller coaster, but just in a different spot.
and i don’t know what to do with that feeling– it’s uncomfortable, even though it’s happy, and i just need someone or something to hug to let it out. but of course i’m the only one up in the house and the dogs have to stay outside.
right now, that song is the light will come by phil wickham. it reminds me of cold weather and this past february. this past february was awesome.
and the love is obviously for luke (maybe it’s not that obvious… i mean i love a lot of people.) but since he’s the one who does things like sits me down and teaches me how to practice piano chords, and carries around a deck of cards in his pocket to do magic tricks at a moment’s notice, he’s the one who gets the swelling heart feeling.
does this happen to anyone else? or am i the only crazy one who has physical symptoms to her emotions?
