I completely agree. Maybe I don't need to understand why I'm here, or what I'm supposed to accomplish, but instead manage to have a good feeling about the things I do and the way I effect others. I'm probably at the happiest I've ever been right now, and I'm at a point in life where I don't have much to call my own. Starting a new career and taking a *drastic* pay cut has me pretty much where I was when I graduated high school. But I'm doing things that I feel great about.
The things I dread the most are the things I feel best about once they're finished. Volunteering early in the morning, I hate it. But I know once it's over the rest of the day will be wonderful.
My opinions are nothing I haven't heard bunches of people say over the years- but as a person who just 4 years ago thought I'd never be able to get out of bed or god forbid be happy, these are revelations. And I cherish them. I just try to stay in the sun.
