Things I like: My life

Sometimes? I’m not a very happy person. Like. Really not happy.
But right now, I’m smiling.

Aaron Paul is happy as well

I’d love to be able to tell you why. To tell you exactly how to become happy. But I can’t give you a blow-by-blow description of how things shifted for me.

I can only tell you why I’m happy in this moment.

It’s a mix of a lot of different things, but generally speaking, I really like the direction my life is taking. Work is going splendid. I’m to start school this fall. I’ve begun to talk to old friends I hadn’t even realized I’d missed. My family is pleasant to be around. Life is good.

The 10th Doctor thinks that life is pretty swell as well.

Weirdly enough, this streak of happiness isn’t because of some guy, who’s come to sweep me off my feet. I haven’t met prince charming on a white horse.

But it does kind of feel like I’m in love.

Maybe I’m in love with my own life? It sounds corny and self-involved. And it’s not that I can’t see areas in my life that couldn't be improved, but I just feel like those areas are getting increasingly insignificant. It’s just a matter of time before they’re gone. And time is on my side.

I like where I am, and I like where I’m going. I couldn’t very well ask for more?

Except maybe the 10th Doctor looking at me like that, inviting me to board his TARDIS.

I don’t know how long my streak of happiness will last. I try not to think about it (but a small voice in my head keep insisting that it won’t last forever).

In this very moment, I’m just happy and thankful for my happiness (and I suppose I’d only take it for granted, if I wasn’t afraid of losing it).
