Today

Today I'm happy. There's no easier way to describe it. My thoughts are more collected, I can think of things to come, and memories to be made. I smile more today, I laugh to myself at times, it's a good day.

To say the last few weeks have been a bit rough is sort of an understatement, but I've mentioned before that, "that's life". The things that are worth fighting for are the things I want in life. Now I have one of those things. Sometimes you go through life wishing you had something, just one thing and when you finally have it you gain something else. Fear. A fear of losing the one thing you've wanted for so long. Today that fear is gone. Today I'm happy.

One of the great things about getting something you've tried so hard for is the feeling that you can accomplish a lot in life. Not only am I happy, I am now optomistic, even more so than before. I've never been one to doubt myself much, but this makes me even more confident in the possiblities of the future. The feeling you can do anything is a great feeling, even if it is an arrogant feeling. We all have to put ourselves above other things every once in a while, only then can we see far ahead. Only when we can put other things aside can we see our futures and goals clearly.

Then there's the feeling of doing all of this and not being alone. You can do a lot alone, you should do a lot alone. But when you've accomplished many things in your life alone, it feels good to be able to share your accomplishments with someone.

It's easy to get ahead of oneself when you're happy. But that feels good also. Dreams are versions of a reality that can be. Why not make them so?

Today I'm happy. Thank you.
