Day 155: Riding the wave of happiness

I woke up today and the world seemed a little different.

It wasn't as difficult to get out of bed... although I still managed to hit the snooze button 5 times. It just seemed peaceful to lay in bed for a few minutes.

The last song I heard on the radio was Colbie Caillat, 'Bubbly'. If Mr. Wonderful and I ever had a song, that was it.

At one point someone told me about 'musical postcards', and i had to believe this was one of them. I felt an amazing energy come over my body and I knew he was with me.

Musical postcards are messages from those who have passed on... have you ever noticed a certain song on the radio at a certain time that reminds you of something special? That's pretty much what they are, and there is a school of thought that they are not a coincidence.

Based off my experiences the past few years I believe that to be true, and it was a great way to start off an amazing day.

For the first time in years, I was happy going into work. I had a sort of inner peace going on. I wanted to hug everyone but realized that probably wasn't the best idea so I settled for a smile and encouraging words.

By lunch I was exuberant! I had no idea why but I was really very, undeniably happy and I wasn't going to question it.

I almost felt like a little kid without a care in the world. I was on my way to grab something to eat and I just wanted to shout 'I am happy!'

I tried calling the Encourager because I wanted to tell someone, I just couldn't keep it inside, but she didn't answer.

It didn't matter, I ended up putting the top down and soaking up the sunshine heading back to the station for the rest of my day.

I haven't felt this way in so long, I have forgotten what it feels like. It was the most unusual feeling in the world. It was like I was completely whole-heartedly in love and maybe I was... with myself! Not in a crazy I'm full of myself kind of way, more in a I rock the world kind of way.

The day continued and so did my natural 'high' after work I was meeting the Cheerleader for a pre-birthday happy hour.

Once again, I continued to hug people. It's so not my style, or I guess I should say it so 'wasn't' my style but I am a changed woman.

I'm will hug people, I will encourage and support them, I will let the past go and I will speak my mind. Oh yeah... and I will be happy!
