Today was not perfect


I woke up with a headache, someone was displeased with me, I am still catching up on linguistics reading. Today was not perfect, but it was underlain by a general state of okay, I think. And that's enough.

And now, to sit in the slanting early-evening sunlight, my fingertips cold from the tangerine I just peeled, writing a letter to a dear friend to tell her how happy I am—how lucky I am, and doubly so to be able to write that without any irony this time.

  21. Danielle - Not nearly as much as I changed in the year before this last one, meaning no 180s. I think I've been going in the same direction that I found last spring, but this year has seen the...testing of that. Harder circumstances to cement the ways that I worked to change myself.

    Inkgirl - thank yoouu. :)
