Happiness for another...
I've had this odd feeling lately. Let me explain....no, there's too much too explain. Let me sum up.
My bestie, Chris, left his wife because he was in a marriage that wasn't working out. Fact they just weren't compatible. So, they split and now....now he's starting to write again & do music again. His wife didn't like him writing or doing music, she wanted him to not be in the music industry because it wasn't stable. Now he's back at it. I don't know how I can express how happy I am for him. It's like....seeing someone breathe again after they were drowning. Just now I did a search for his band and found footage of them in Japan rehearsing acoustically and the camera zooms in on him and he's got his eyes closed and he's just singing the words.

The image was beautiful. Not just because he's a damn handsome man, cause he is, but more because it was....like seeing someone so at peace and in the moment. It is a thing of beauty. I am so very happy that he's back into being creative, he's been out of the world way too long. I truly love him, we've been friends for almost 10 years now, been through a lot of things together and remained friends. All I want is his happiness and I know this makes him happy, and because of that I have that feeling of extreme happiness for him. Hope that makes sense! I don't feel this way for very many people in my life. Yes, happy for people, but this is so genuine; like his happiness is MY happiness. There's a word for this, isn't there? It's a good feeling.
