Is your life in a Happy Place or Not Yet?

I wouldn't say 'happy' but I have a relatively good job, live in my own home and all my children are grown and gone. I am blessed with good health and presently not wanting for anything so I'd say VERY content.

I was, but things changed and I am no longer. I hope one day I will be again .

I think for the first time in a while (Or maybe even in my whole life, thus far, for that matter.), I'm quite content. It's a strange feeling, but definitely refreshing. I feel alleviated and rejuvenated. I feel sharper; like I have better control of hot to express myself in a legible manner, as well as verbally expressing myself in a coherent, decipherable manner. For the longest, I've been feeling misunderstood. But now, I think I'm coming into my own; slowly but surely, I'm rebuilding parts of me that once felt were destroyed like a convalescent whom once ran the line of scrimmage as an adolescent youth. I feel older. Essentially, I'm still the same big kid I always was (And always will be, quite frankly. I probably have what some would consider a horrible sense of humor. Maybe too dark and cavalier towards themes of morbidity and macabre/martyred entities of the world.). My working of logic/rationale was never my strong suit. And my perceptions are a bit flawed, but I try my best to put on a facade that conveys a sense of balance. I'm really swinging like a pendulum, though. I need to calibrate my stance in every sense of the word.

Usually it's a wonderful balance of both and I am greatful for that


sometimes it may swing a bit more towards one or another - and that's a good thing too- keeps life interesting and keeps me learning


who would want a stagnent consistant one or the other ?

I definitely have some 'wanting' but overall I'm pretty content.
