Feeling Great

Jun 03, 2009 11:07

I love feeling chipper when I wake up in the morning.  When I do, it feels like nothing can make my day bad.  I found cat poop on the floor right before I had to leave for work, but it didn't make me angry, since I woke up chipper!  I had to come to work this morning and deal with the normal crap I deal with, but I'm still in a great mood.  I wish I had more days like this.  I feel productive!

I read my old livejournal entries again yesterday.  I like doing that from time to time.  Reading them brings up emotions I haven't felt in a long time.  I started to recall how I felt during all of my break-ups, make ups, drunken moments, and deaths.  I also realized (like I do every single time I read my old entries) how much I've grown up.  It's funny to think back about all of the things that made me angry or sad or happy, even.  I know five years from now, I will look back on what I wrote today and probably think the same thing I've been thinking about the stuff I read last night.

I'm so happy with where my life is going.  I never thought in a million years that I'd be married before 25, living with my fiance, paying all of my own bills, taking care of a family (of cats, but still), and living an independent life.  I never thought I'd settle down--I was always looking for the fun time.  I've come to realize that being with someone you love IS fun and you can still be crazy and goofy, just like you were before.  I've also come to value friendships far more now than I ever had.  I've been rekindling friendships with people who I haven't spent much time talking to in the past five years.  It's amazing how life milestones bring people together.

I'm so thankful for the people in my life; Caleb, family, friends--everyone.  I'm very, VERY fortunate.
