This is a deep meta question; not the response you give others. When you ask yourself, “how do I feel,” is that answer you synthesize, the answer you draw from the edge of your conscious and unconscious self; is this answer a reference to the immediately preceding past of your inner experience, or is the answer from some self aware inner entity that exists in the ever changing experience of right now?

    How do I feel?

    Usually with my fingers :)

    But more seriously, there are depths to how I feel. An easy example of this is how I feel in a moment vs how I feel about my life in general. There are also aspect of my life that I may be deeply unhappy about whilst feeling generally good about my life as a whole.

    Especially over recent years, as relationships in my life have grown more complex, I’ve really started to appreciate how I can have two feelings about the same thing at the same time.
