What Made You Happy Today?

Took some photos today of the variety of flowers in bloom... Azaleas, magnolias, camelias, and even gardina and iris are in bloom. Unusal for this time of year to have mixed season plants booming all at once. It really is something good for me to focus on and I think it's helping with my usual seasonal funk. My husband even planted our yard for me in winter rye grass so it would be green all year. I appreciate it every time I look out the window or pull in the driveway.
 
I realized that I have gone through a healing transition, and I'm very optimistic and hopeful because of it. It's strange how inner work is happening while we are in the what seems to be the worst place. Recently I came face to face with the fear that I might go off the deep end, so to speak, but instead of losing my sanity, which is what I was afraid of, I ended up just fine. I have stubbornly held the stance that I'm not that bad, I just have these setbacks, but it's all under control, and when I had that moment of "uh oh", I'm not going to make it this time, they're gonna have to take me to the looney bin, in the next moment, that fear was gone, and I was okay, somewhat calm even. It's hard to explain, and I'm not sure I can really convey what happened, but it's good, and I wish I could share it. It's like one moment my mind was racing, I was scared it was going to race beyond my own reach and that it was going to be lost to me, like I couldn't handle it anymore, but then the next moment I landed on both feet......safe. It was very sudden and quick...and now I feel better than I have in a long time. I'm stronger now. This makes me happy.
