although I am not 100% sure of what it is.
Through out my first years of drinking wine there was always one constant image and feeling: someone pulling out aged wine whenever they drank and the satisfaction their body language would convey about what that meant and the feeling was that very feeling.
I think I always held this out as a mark success - both personal and material - where one doesn't have worry and has moved one step closer to that often illusive mark of personal happiness.
I think I am experiencing a lifetime success because more and more I can connect with this image and feeling...
A funny thing is that I am not sure if I am surprised that I am experiencing this now: have I hit this lifetime success earlier than I expected? Or have I actually hit it when I expected to?
I think the 'answer' is more of the second.
And I am not sure, but I think understanding that answer will unlock a lot about myself that I have not yet realised.
