Out of the fog

I had an emotional outburst with a relative today, who had come to visit. It left me mentally and emotionally exhausted, but after a short rest I was rejuvenated and felt extraordinarily lucid. It feels like all the while I had been walking in a fog and only now have I come out of it.

I guess some things bother you so much on a sub-conscious level, but you just don't realise it; it just simmers inside of you. Until somehow it's punctured, and all the stress is released.
