I think I'm actually experiencing Peace

  • I took a walk through my neighborhood and just started voice recording a line of thought I had.
    Yes, I am redefining happiness for myself... My happiness before had been from working hard to progress towards being someone that I wanted to be. I think I would now describe the 'happiness' I felt in that endeavor as 'relief'. If I spent a day 'getting after it', I would feel that 'happiness' at the end of the day.
    Without taking those actions to become someone who I wanted to be, I felt a weird sense that I was messing up my life. It felt as if my life should be a certain way, but because I was not doing everything I have to do for my life to actually be that way, I am ruining it and any chance for it to be something extraordinary.
    I felt relief, instead of true happiness most of the time. Relief that I am not actually messing up my life. What a weird thing, huh?
    Happiness now means genuine satisfaction with where I am at. In a moment of happiness, I am satisfied with where I am at, I am grateful for what my life is at that moment.
