That's what's going on

I feel too much. That’s what’s going on.”
“Do you think one can feel too much? Or just feel the wrong ways? My insides don’t much up with my outsides.”
“Do anyone’s inside and outsides match up?”
“I don’t know. I’m only me.”
“Maybe that’s what a person’s personality is: the difference between the inside and the outside.

—from Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close by
Jonathan Safran Foer

  3. You know what? I really want to give you a high five because this is how I have been feeling lately. So much that you become numb.
