Joy and Happiness

I have come to realize that I may be in the happiest period of my life

and yes

a part of that has to do with M

but it's not all him

and thank goodness -- happiness based on a single person is too fragile

to volitile

Instead

I have a soothing sense of calm
of being on my path
of having all things pointing the right direction

Work is good
Relationship is good
Family is good

interestingly -- this is also a rather lonely time in my life

M is far away
my best friend has moved to another city
I am so busy that I have little time to talk to family

I should be up and down

but instead

I am just happy

even joyful.

and I'm stunned by this

this overall feeling of well-being
even when I am stressed out

I still feel very content

because the stress is part of the journey

I'm off to go sign my new lease here in a few minutes
and get everything lined up for this move.

but I wanted to share this with someone

Much love to you all
