2019
I am walking down a street in a tiny town in France
It has been about 3 months since the divorce
The sun was out and the wind is blowing lightly
I have nothing in particular happening on the day
I have nothing in particular to be happy about
…yet I am so happy
I'm so fucking happy!
My heart feels like it will burst with joy...
After years and years of misery and despondency...
I finally feel none of it - and I feel joy
I didn’t know it was possible to be so happy
Why did nobody tell me it was possible to be this happy?
I wouldn’t have put up with misery for so long if I knew….
I have nothing in particular to happy about
Yet - today - I'm the happiest person alive!
In picture: The exact street where the above thoughts took place.
