Breaking the Silence....Again...With Excessive Happiness
I am happy. Correction, I am almost always, exceedingly happy. My energy and enthusiasm seem to run at 110% of full capacity. I..am happy.
Today, was my last day of after-school tutoring, and for the most part, we just hung around with the students. Saying goodbye was not that difficult for me, for I had kept a professional distance with them. However, I was saddened at seeing some of the tutors go. I realized, that it was this tutoring that was keeping me in contact with some of my dearest friends. I'm troubled by the realization that now, with no tutoring, there is a large possibility I will hardly ever....ever see them again.
One thing that did strike me interesting...was that I found out that I am viewed, by certain individuals, as "insanely nice." I must admit, that this compliment really touches me. Even when I'm having the worst of days, I am still viewed as a kind person. That is truly one legacy I love to leave behind.
As far as being..."excessively happy" I cannot explain it. I just...am! What's not to be happy about? So the question therefore becomes, not "Why are you so happy?" but rather.."Why aren't you as happy as me?"
May God keep you this and every night
