I think this is my favorite year... at least in part because that comes as a complete surprise. :)
I have experience a unique degree of satisfaction this year, that dawned on me slowly in small bite size pieces. I think it didn't want to scare me away. :} I have only been this happy at one or two other times in my life: both in love, both in situations that seemed at the time to be gifted to me, finite but wonderful. I think that this is the first time in my life when I have realized that I am completely capable of creating these situations at will--they have only an exterior connection with love, people, beautiful places, and are in fact generated interiorly. This nascent idea has become quite a fascination and I frequently stop whatever I am doing, wherever I am to express to any and everyone how happy I am in this very moment.
