Daily Comment
These days, I find myself very emotional and very sentimental.
On the one hand, I get excited by my daily work on my investments (it is mostly score-keeping, but I am doing end-of-year stuff), even though I'm not day-trading, which was the excitement of gambling.
On the other, I am easily moved - one could say, emotionally manipulated - by things I see on TV. I'm alone, but I still feel a bit embarrassed, yet still enjoy the catharsis.

However, as I write this, I have been crying a lot over a friend of mine who is sick and in hospital and in pain.
For the most part, I am that guy who stays calm in an emergency. I have been accused of being unemotional in the past. Aloof.

Some people, friends up here in Syracuse, think I have only one mood. I think of myself as very emotional, but usually, not so much in a reactive sense. In the past, I would sometimes over-react. Now, I tend to let go of things that cause great emotional upheaval.
I'm working on that at the moment - letting go of my own reactions, now that I've had them, so I can better be present for the people who provoked them in the first place.
I'm grateful for the skill with which I get to a place of non-attachment, especially as it applies to my inner dialog.
