a fresh new start 7

Right now I feel so overwhelmed by pure happiness!

Not because anyone has done anything in particular.

Not because I have done anything special either.

But yes, I have pulled my roots up, and moved from the town in which I was born and lived for about 50 years to be with the man I love.

And I have found that the house in this new place needs much more attention than expected. The garden too, Oh my lord! No need for bad consciousness for not going to the gym! I am cutting branches and trees and roots and pretending to be Indiana Jones cutting his way through the jungle!

So in fact, I am a little tired and exhausted right now.

And still, I feel so happy.

May be its all just because of spring? All of nature is getting a brand new start, and of course it reflects my own situation. It is a fresh, new start to something I know very little about what will bring. Oh, yes, like everyone I have my hopes and dreams and plans. But honestly I do not know what will come out of them, what will come true, and how the future will look like.  This happiness is not depending on dreams and hopes. Not at all.

No, this is not the reason to happiness right now.

It is this:

Every moment is a brand new start!

If I am to make a wish, of all my heart I would scream it out loud:

MAY EVERY MOMENT OF THE DAY BE LIKE AT FRESH NEW START!

For indeed it is!

This happiness tells me that every moment, every day, holds the secret to this:

It is the beginning and the end, of the whole creation. This moment IS the happiness, the happiness that has no reason, no goal, and no meaning.  This happiness do not need anything, not even me.

So, what stops me from experiencing “spring- happiness”  all the time?

I do not know.

But I do know when it is here.
