While I’m Still Alive

Somebody asked me the other day, “How are you feeling about your life?’ rather then the standard, “How ya doin?” I had to stop for a moment and ask myself how did I want to answer that question? Usually I answer with “Fantastic” even though I may not feel fantastic in the moment. People really don’t want to hear that I’m tired, or mad or disappointed if my life isn’t working out the way I think it’s should.
