Plutchik's Wheel of Emotions is a pretty fascinating way at looking at how we feel. I think the older I've gotten, the harder it is for me to characterize how I feel. When I was young, I could easily identify whether I was happy or afraid or bored or amazed. Now, perhaps from the exhaustion of work, I find myself a little more numb. I don't think it's a good thing. So recently I've been looking at the chart and trying to triangulate where my feelings fall.

there is something ironic about using a chart to help you identify your emotions. :)
