Time Again

It’s been good to me.

Time, that is.

I’m happier.

Everything leading up to this moment has been a life filled with ups and downs.

Struggles and pain

Heartache and uncertainty

Anxiety, fear, worry, obstacles

It wasn’t easy to get to this level of satisfaction

It wasn’t easy to get to a level of happiness I needed

I made it.  I pulled through.

The darkness is not haunting me.

It’s not mocking me

I know better now.  I understand.

It’s with time that I allowed myself to heal.

I waited . . . i yearned . . . I hoped for a better life.

and it’s happening one step at a time.

Inhale. Exhale. Inhale. Exhale

Breathe in the cool, crisp air.

Feel the warmth of the sun.

This is life.
