Not sure if y'all have followed my recent posts, but I've been going through an enormously positive change in my life, and it is only getting better by the day.

I feel mightily strong, like a male Siberian tiger in his prime, and I feel like I have so much strength that I can spare some. I feel almost completely in control of my emotions, and hence, in control of my life. I feel like I can control the outcome of each day.

I know that some of y'all out there are going through a tough time I'd like to give you my inspiration and strength. Six months ago, I shot a lead projectile through my chest, aiming for my dark heart, and ended up in hospital. Now, after some trying times, I feel like life can hardly get better.

Despite being alone as always, I had an absolutely fabulous XMas ... solo trip (driving) to Oregon. Thoroughly enjoyed myself.

I'm working on self-improvement, setting boundaries with people, better time management, being more organized at home (and decluttering), and staying in good physical shape, through my exercise regimen.

Fantasies (of being with someone) aside, I think this is pretty much the closest I can get to what they call "happiness".

Things can and do get better So hang in there.
