Life is a journey!

~ Moments and feelings!

Last weekend I travelled to New York with some friends. We enjoyed amazing days there, because we discovered the city and visited places where we always wanted to stay.

All the experiences contain different moments and situations that make us sense a huge kind of feelings. In the last days, I have experienced mood swings all the times! Although I am not a psychologist and I have never studied about people and their feelings, in this post I want to write a little about this topic.

Anxiety

One of the first feelings that appeared some days before the trip was the anxiety.

I was extremely eagerly for the trip, I was thinking about it all the time! One situation I experienced was that when I was sleeping I had some dreams related with the trip. For example, one night, I woke up desperately because in dreams I had forgot my passport in the towers and I wasn’t able to travel. It took me some minutes to realize that it was just a nightmare.

Nervousness

Another feeling you may experience is nervousness: when you worry about things that sometimes never happen and your heart starts to race faster. For instance, the Friday afternoon when we were going to the airport to take our plane, it was a jam traffic in the way. The uber was very slow. In that moment my mind started to think that maybe we would be late for our flight! Fortunately, we arrived on time and we could take the plane undisturbed.

Despair

Sometimes, people listen or see something and worry about what can happen. When we arrived in New York and went to the house we have rented, I felt that.

It was a dirty building with keyless locking! You can’t imagine my face in that moment! The man who drove the uber didn’t want to leave us there, so he phoned the person who rented us the apartment. Some minutes later, a man went out from the horrible building. Luckily, he said us that it wasn’t the apartment where we were going to stay! I felt better when we arrived to our small but nice apartment in Chinatown J

Happiness

I think that happiness and pleasure are the best feelings a person can sense. Sometimes is difficult to explain how it feels. You think that you are living the best moment in your life, you laugh very loud, jump for joy, show of emotion and hug the person who is next to you. As you can imagine, most of the time I spent in New York I felt extremely pleasant!

Wonder

Your eyes can’t believe what they are looking at. Monuments, natural beauties, buildings, landscapes, museums, streets, are extraordinary things and absolutely breathtaking. You turn your eyes around the place where you are and everything make you feel wonderful. For example, I always dream of knowing the Statue of Liberty and I can’t describe what I felt when it was in front of my eyes!

Irritation

New York is an amazing city and you never want to leave that place, but we had to return to Austin. We were in the airport, laughing and remembering the days we have experienced when we saw in the screen that our flight wasn’t at the time it had to be. We sat down and wait quietly. As soon as we sat, the time in the screen changed again. We had to wait more. This situation repeated several times. Four hours later while we were waiting, an employer said us that our flight was cancelled. 

Relief

Relief for me is when you feel security and peace to stay warmly in house. That was that my heart felt when we arrived to Austin later more than 30 hours in airports and planes.
