I don't know about you, but I have been feeling all sorts of wonderful lately. I feel so liberated and although there are still moments of sadness and paranoia (unnecessary paranoia, really), I think I'm finally learning to choose happiness. =) 

Perhaps it's too cliché, but it's true when they say, "when a door closes, another one opens" -- well, something to that extent, at least.

I don't really know what happened or how we ended up this way, but I am, in all truthfulness, doing very well. Months ago, I'd have cried my seemingly broken heart out, but it's different now. I've learned to be stronger and honestly, I'm just so sick and tired of your stupid mind games.

Thank you for not speaking to me. (To test me? To prove --to yourself-- that I needed you?) I'm glad I was too numb to feel vulnerable. It was the best thing you've ever done; farewell. Finally.

“If you’re brave enough to say goodbye, life will reward you with a new hello."

Paulo Coelho

Maybe this isn't the hello I've been dreaming of, but it sure was timely. Before I even got the chance to feel all sorts of sorry for myself, the most unexpected of hellos stopped me in my tracks. It's all fun, and I am learning to enjoy things as they are (because sometimes it gets hard). But for sure: this hello detached me from the unnecessary people in my life. I couldn't be happier.

Life is great. It's challenging every now and then, but you'll get through it -- just choose happiness and use it to help you carry on. :)
