I am experiencing contentment. My dad and I are getting along and when we do butt heads we are able to resolve our differences rather quickly and then go on. My dad says I am acting my age. Hopefully they will realize then that they do not have to "parent me" anymore. My mom and I are doing good also. She is letting me cook on Monday. I get the Food Network Magazine and found a few things in there I want to try and she agreed they sounded good. So that is why I am feeling content.

I can't ever remember feeling content. It is strange to feel it and kind of scary. I am used to chaos and all that comes with it and it is going away. I need to not let me get me if that makes any sense.

Do any of you know of way to learn to experience contentment?
