I went to a different gym today before work. When I was there, I realized something:
Hawaii is the most beautiful place I have ever been, yet I had no interest in going there at any point in my life. I went because I got an amazing deal on tickets. As it turns out, the state changed my outlook on life tremendously. It's beautiful and wonderful and I can't imagine never having seen it.
Well, it has taken from January 1 to March 9, 2012, but I've reached content. I have a long way to go to achieve "happy", but content is a big, big step. Bigger than I ever thought. It's also not something I have ever been nor has it been something I have ever wanted.
There's an internal peace and an unusual lack of stress in my life.
I have reached a comfort level with myself, my personality, my job, my finances, my blog, my friends and even my family.
I have let in who I want here and eliminated those that need not to be in my world.
BEFORE I turn 40, I have realized content is a necessary step in my happiness.
I guess sometimes the most beautiful things in life come despite our efforts not to see them as such.
That's it. Goodnight.
