Lloydian's Notes

Complete Happiness

This has been a rough year for our country. And I would say it's been tough for me personally, but I've been seeing an awful lot of silver linings lately.

I have a good feeling about tomorrow's presidential election, and since this candidate has excited me more than any in my lifetime, I can't wait for the result.

But that isn't the main reason for complete happiness.

Yesterday, the Arizona Cardinals thoroughly wholloped the St. Louis Rams 34-13. The game had temporary rough spots, but overall, it just made me happier and happier the longer it lasted.

But that isn't the main reason either.

Friday was Halloween. My home had visits from 140 kids, one of whom was wearing a Cardinals jersey (one more than last year). This town improves in small stages.

You guessed it, that's still not the main reason.

No, Saturday had me on Cloud 9. I spent the day doing mundane things like watching a confusing movie, having lunch, going to stores. And all was done in the company of another who gives me joy just by being present.

My life isn't perfect, but it's going awfully well.
