Happiness is on my front porch enjoying the gentle evening breeze. The sound of it, the feel of it. What hearing the sweet birds does to me every time. The voices of a thousand crickets joining the discussion. Seeing diamond stars against the backdrop of a clear black sky.
My God; it's all so sensual. I have lived my life in a state of acute blindness. No more.
And, as it turns out, there was a very satisfactory 3rd alternative. Who knew?
I chose to compromise this evening instead of trying to conquer myself.
Is there nothing that Nature cannot fix?
But I'll be back...
