This is now

I’m bursting with energy; my mind is ticking; everything seems so simple that I don’t need to talk about what’s in my head-it would be like saying that water is wet. It started yesterday-I was walking home after work, my head felt heavy with fatigue and discouragement and all of a sudden I felt at peace with myself and the world around.

It feels strange; it feels good. I don’t know if that’s what happiness is but it suits me just fine.

And thank you Dee Dee for showing me Herman Hesse’s Siddhartha; there aren’t that many people among those I know that I could talk freely about those changes and that book gives me comfort and reassurance that I’m not losing my mind.
