The Good Life

I was talking with someone a few years ago, and I said to them, "I'm really happy..."
She asked why, what had happened that made me so happy...
I said, "Nothing...I'm just happy..."

It was an epiphany for me to realize that happiness is really a state of mind and heart, an attitude, an inside job...
Although I had focused for years on outer people, places and things to bring me a good life, it really had started on the inside...
This change in feeling had been the result of much inner work, the soul searching and fear facing that only those who've gone through the dark night of the soul know...

Since then, the ripple of my life has been expanding more and more...
I have amazing friends, a loving family and my own business that keeps growing day by day...

I'm living the good life, baby!
