Something Wonderful

Something wonderful has happened in my life.
Wrapping me up in its arms...
I feel no worry.
I'm happy.

Glowing.

Ahh, what a feeling! To feel apart of something bigger than me. Something that goes beyond human understanding. For what is love? So much to so many. So many different interpretations; feelings, experiences, perspectives. We all have our stories. Some good, some bad. But when it's really good...

Yeah. That's the stuff.

That feeling that you're... not alone.
(Well, you're never really alone... have you looked around?!)
But there's that sudden realization that you have a companion.
A best friend.
A gentle hand.
A walk in the park that brightens your day.
A simple phone call to hear their voice.
A brush of your hair from your face...

The little things. The important things. The things that last a lifetime.

Love has been many things to me in my lifetime thus far...
but right now, that's what love means to me.
And I think I've found it.
That something wonderful we all crave... ache for, even.

I don't know what the future holds, but I'm not worried. For once, this anxious girl is at peace with love. Maybe for now... maybe forever. Either way, this present moment is... is. It is everything. The in-between the worries and doubts and hopes and dreams... the stress of work and the drama of others. The only moment that actually ever matters. And I'm going to embrace it, for all its worth. Every single one of them; these precious, present moments.

For what is life... without them. <3
