The Spirit of Happiness Abounds
I’m so excited for this coming week! Not only is it Thanksgiving break, but I get to see my lovely beau, who I miss so much. It’s hard being away from someone you love for so long; one could almost say that it is painful. Just to be in his arms again, is all that I ask for. Next Sunday is our 7th month together! He is just wonderful and sweet and lovely. I think the spirit of happiness is in the air. I can hear my hall mates yelling (but what’s new?) and laughing gleefully. I’m happy that everyone is happy. I must say though that I will not be going to see my family this Thanksgiving. I like the reaction on people’s faces when I say that. They are surprised, wondrous, and overall shocked that I will be here by myself. And I must say, even if I happen to be here by myself (versus getting to see my lovely), I think that I would manage just fine. I’ll simply occupy myself with activities such as reading, writing, painting, or playing the piano. I say that now, but I really don’t know how I would feel if I did have to be here in the dorms by myself. I would appreciate the solitude, though. I don’t seem to get that much around here, and perhaps that is the reason why I miss home. Yes, I look forward to being alone sometimes. The quietness and peacefulness moves and inspires me.
I’m thankful that my honey will be with me this coming week. I can’t be anymore grateful to have him in my life. Maybe he is the reason why I am okay being by myself sometimes; he makes me feel at home wherever I am.
