Why Do I Feel Sad Essay

Improved Essays
I feel sad. Well, I wouldn’t say sad, more of down but not blue. It’s something I can’t put description into but either way I’m tired from and of it. It’s not unbearable or pushing me to suicide, nothing like that. I feel unmotivated, lost, as if I’m not grounded from the world and my body just kind of aimlessly floats around the planet with nothing to give or receive. I can still be happy and feel other emotions, don’t get me wrong, just once I no longer have a distraction time freezes and the pressure of a quiet room sets down on me.

We lived in the South Valley and I was in either 5th or 6th grade but I know I had a “friend” who lived up he ditch from my house. We would always wander the neighbourhood but come across a cute little black dog without a name.

Growing up in the neighbourhood I did we were taught to never open the door for anybody, if they didn’t have a key or weren’t expected then the door is staying locked.

This got me even more confused because our front yard is closed off with a fence, how did she get in? Either way I took her inside and grandpa said he wouldn’t say anything to mom. I fed her and gave her water then she passed out in my bed. Soon after my mom came home and saw her, proceeding to tell the black dog to leave and find another home. Mom eventually let me keep her and that’s when Sam became her new name little did we know within a couple months we’d be gifted with 8 newborn puppies.

I never answered the door when I was home alone, some habit I had gotten after being reminded by my mother a thousand times, and I had a system worked out with my friends that they would yell through the door if it was them.

I started to walk back to the office, chalking it up to the neighborhood kids when I heard my back gate open.…

    She wasn’t acting like herself anymore. It was almost as if it was her daily routine to act as if she was in pain, which she was. It was a long, unusual problem that my dog Gizzie was in a different state of mind, so our family knew what we had to do. It was hard to understand at first, how a dog that’s been around my whole life would be gone the next day.
