Ma tête vaut cher :)
"Somewhere, somehow, somebody
Must have kicked you around some
Who knows, maybe you were kidnapped,
Tied up, taken away, and held for ransom
Honey, it don't really matter to me
Baby, everybody's had to fight to be free
You see, you don't have to live like a refugee..."
I'm a very happy girl (why do I talk like this?) as of today in particular. I'm experiencing a feeling that I haven't felt myself fully immersed in since last summer- HOPE. The good kind. The last time I felt this sense of hope it was accompanied by a feeling of liberation. I'm feeling that way now too. When this sort of thing comes around it's amazing. I've got complete faith in the universe and I'm not worried at all about things.
My dad told me a couple of weeks ago that good things happen to good people. I like to believe this, although sometimes the world lacks empirical evidence for this sort of thing. A major hindrance to my own personal happiness has always been other people's unhappiness (whether it means being aware of it, being a witness to it, or having them attempt to hurt me as a result of it). The real silver lining or plus side to this is choice. I choose how I react to things. I'm going to work harder to help those in need (whatever the need) and to be understanding of people.
I'm digging karma too, although if it doesn't exist I'm still content to be kind anyhow. In the wise wise words of the Mighty Mighty Bosstones "The good are good without reward." I like to think of karma in the sense of good people seeing benefits. I don't necessarily dig it in the sense of people having bad things happen to them after doing bad things. I honestly think people do selfish and hurtful things because they're unhappy and that makes me feel sorry.
I got into my first choice grad school and, despite being a bit stressed over finances, I am seriously so happy. I have the oppurtunity to work hard and do exactly what I've wanted to do with my life since middle school (well ONE of the things I wanted to do, with firefighter being a close second). I'm going to help people. I'm going to make a living out of helping people who are unhappy. I can't even put into words how happy and hopeful I feel.
End transmission!
