How are you doing today?

How is it going?

A question asked in a curious way
The answer however is not always conveyed fully but in a simple way...

If we disclose too much we fear we may drive the asker away, an answer too dull and we surely do ourselves no justice.

How anyone is, on in any given day is a flux of emotion so vast and dynamic the sheer thought required to even come up with an answer has the potential to change one's mood, feelings, emotion, and mindset in a massive way. Yet some constants do stay the same.

And may I say today, I'm feeling great yet I'm terrified of my own fate.
What tomorrow brings be it dull or extraordinary still remains a mystery.

Happy endings don't come at all or come a bit too late and disappear soon as we get a little taste.

All of this we ourselves create!
Might as well share it now before it's too late...

I'm Bitter Sweet, conquered, a bit dismayed, holding on until the last day.

But all of that can be a bit too much for most people to say...

Even though they may feel the same way.
