Hollow shell

Do you have moments in your life where you feel like a hollow shell?

I'm at that state of being right now.

I feel worthless.

I feel empty.

I feel like a servant.

I feel limp.

My head feels numb.

My eyes on the verge of tears.

I feel like an old dish rag that's been used all day and then thrown in the trash.

If I don't rely on anyone, I feel like I can accomplish more. But life is about being WITH people, isn't it?

How can a look or one sentence from another make a person feel less than they are?

Don't worry about me though. I'm sure my attitude will be better tomorrow. I've got to buck up. Keep a stiff upper lip. Continue on my journey through life with a smile.

But right now? My heart is sad.
