For the first time in a long time, I realize that I'm pretty happy again.
After over a year of anxiety, depression, and many other things (one could even make an argument for PTSD after literally a lifetime of some of the things that happened), I think I'm in "remission." I feel at peace, happy, even hopeful. I've had periods like this before, but they've only lasted a week or two, so hopefully this one will last for a while. This one feels different though. Even after an incident I recover fairly quickly. I feel unrelentingly optimistic, and freedom is right on the horizon. It's a nice thought.
Quite a while ago, Isabelle showed me this song. It was nice and cheerful, but not very memorable. Then it hit the mainstream, even being featured in a Chili's commercial (Isabelle was not happy about that), and I looked it up again. It's more applicable to my life right now, and I love the lyrics and tune.
"I'm wide awake, so what's the point of dreaming when your life is great?In case this doesn't last a long time, hopefully I can remember to take the good days as they come, and leave the bad days as they go. ◊
Celebrate the feeling, celebrate the feeling,
Can't complain about much these days, I believe we'll be okay."
