One morning a couple of weeks ago I woke up feeling fine. I felt more awake than I had in a couple of weeks. I felt better physically than I had the last couple of weeks. But by the time I got to work, I didn't feel fine anymore. I can't explain why. Perhaps I got up too early and it just caught up with me. Or perhaps I was given the news by my well-meaning significant other that we received an email that someone we know just found out their new baby has PKU. Well, my question to myself is, why am I so emotional about it?
I shed more tears that day than I saw clients or got phone calls at work. I don't know why, but the start to that day just put me into emotional overload unsuspectingly. Here I would like to hash out the reason.
