"How are you feeling?"
I don't like asking, 'how are you?' because the default response is 'I'm good. You?'. In most situations, we are not good. Maybe I should speak for myself and say I am not good. In reality, I am going through the motions and hoping for the best. These past few months have not been easy, although I can say things are looking up. I am indeed doing good.
We tend to share the highlights of our life, which is important. Although I am working on being honest when asked, 'how are you?'. Especially when the person asking honestly wants to know how I am doing.
That being said I would love to know how you are feeling? I also want to let you know you are not alone, and things do get better.
