"But, send me the miles and I'd be happy to..."

These last couple of days were more needed than I realized. Being away from this misery and all that comes with it made everything seem not so bad. It reminded me that I am okay and that the path I have chosen and work so hard to follow is right (if only for myself).

I'm not wrong about a multitude of different things. One being: life can be better.

I played with babies and was hit on by the sexually confused. I watched Charmed and laid around with a good friend. I talked to people I hadn't in awhile and stayed at my apartment and bathed in the silence. I ate Indian food and spent a lot of time just happily being alone with myself.

The latter being something I couldn't have done even just a few short months ago.

Things aren't easy, people let me down, the people around me are bitter and miserable. Currently, my head is pounding. Tons of things are wrong. But, you know what? I am smiling. Enough things are good. I am good.

I guess I'm just sort of in a place of contentment. Just happy to be here, breathing, living life deliberately and as I chose.

That's more than I can say for most people. So, why not be happy about it?
