081: Thoughts

[livingmyths]

I'm feeling a little... sad today, I guess and I really don't know why.

It's a nice day and Spring is coming and my friends are here and I should be all happy, but I'm just sort of... not.

I don't even want to go to the Library.

Maybe... maybe I'll just curl up in bed and pull the covers over my head for a while.

Or maybe I'll go out and sit by the river and hope that makes me feel better.

I'm not sure I understand.

the human brain isn't constant. It's run by chemicals called hormones. They flow like rivers: always steady, but not constant. More water in the river makes the river have more influence. The same can be said for hormones. They cause emotions.

Huh.

So I have more sad hormones today?

[prodigalvampire]

Yeah. It happens. You're just having a sad day. Tomorrow will be better.

Good.

I don't like feeling sad. Especially when I don't understand why.

[prodigalvampire]

No one does.

It makes me feel better to talk to people. Everyone is so nice to me.

[prodigalvampire]

That's because you're a nice person.

I guess.
