The enormous pleasure of acknowledging one has got back the sovereignty of one's own soul
Today,when I was dressing up to dinner, I suddenly realized that I only wanted to enjoy a good meal with myself and come back to my room, alone, inmediatly afterwards so as to have some reading and pleasantly fall asleep, alone.
And with that idea on my mind, I went to the restaurant. I had the most agreeeable dinner, a perfect dessert and a really good wine, which left me just "a triffle relaxed". Relaxed enough to release my mind to the vague thoughts that surrendered to the slow music of the piano.
Left the place saying good bye to the stuff with the most charming of my smiles and went straight forward to the hotel reception to say, with a slight british accent : "Good evening, I wouldn't like to be disturbed tonight, so, please, don't pass me any calls. Thank you". That being said, once more, I showed my best smile and turned towards the lift walking as straight, charmingly and full of dignity as I ever had.
Once in my room at looked at my still smiling face in the mirror, and finally understood the reason why I was feeling so good: "I agree, love is the greatest of the feelings, but, as long as I haven't found the true one yet, good Lord, what a huge pleasure it is to be one's own mistress!, free to enjoy the whole of myself and my magical world without dealing".
