気持: Feeling/Mood

This is a word that probably all learners of Japanese are familiar with:

気持ち
( きもち / kimochi )

This word means "feeling" or "mood" and can be used the same way you use it in English. You can have an uneasy feeling, a bad feeling, a good feeling, etc. 

The individual characters here are "spirit/energy" (気) and "to have/to hold" (持). So, what kind of spirit/energy do you have at the moment? That is your mood...isn't it?

i love Calvin and Hobbes

Everyone, good luck! みんな、がんばって!
