I’m feeling stupid – there’s no other way to put it and I consider myself a pretty smart person, so I’m not saying this lightly.  I am an optimist about most things and I think for once I have to admit that I was stupid – stupid for believing in the possibilities; stupid for listening to the things that other people said, hoping they were right, but knowing in my gut that they were not; stupid for putting myself into a situation that resulted in me feeling … yes – you guessed it – stupid.  The truly sad (though not surprising) part is that my feelings are the cause of my stupidity.  I have always told myself that feelings are not wrong; how can they be, if they are just what you feel??  Unfortunately, whatever it is that I am feeling seems to be wasted energy.  Life is too short and I just can’t allow myself to be stupid any longer!
