Optimism

6:26 am David's Journal

Ever just feel like something’s coming — nothing’s changed on the outside, but it just feels like something good is going to happen at any moment?

That’s how I feel right now.

Nothing’s really changed in my outside world yet. Still working the same job, still earning the same barely-enough-to-get-by income, still single, still everything is pretty much the same.

But I feel different.

And I feel like everything — well, at least, most or all important things — are about to change for the better.

I guess that’s called optimism. I guess that’s called faith.

I can’t see how or why yet. But I feel it. I trust it.

It’s coming.

Maybe my heart’s been healing. Remember that “Ugly” blog? All kinds of emotional crap was coming out of my heart. All kinds of anger and bitterness and loneliness and hatred and disgust, frustration and disappointment, failure, hopelessness… all of it was flushing out of my system, like a massive mind-body-soul cleanse.

At least, that’s how I interpreted it.

Because after I just let it out, after giving myself permission just to feel it without analysis or personal judgment — after a while, it just stopped.

And I felt better.

Cleaner.

Lighter.

For about a day or two. lol. Then it came back, but not as strong, and not for as long.

It’s like God’s preparing me for something.

Or maybe just healing and cleaning me out, which I’ve asked for too.

I dunno.

But I think He’s preparing me for something.

Because, like I said above, I think I sense something coming. Something changing, something good.

I guess we’ll find out in due time.  But in the meantime, I’m just enjoying this good feeling, this positive anticipation.  It’s much better than being stressed or worried all the time, that’s for sure!  lol.  :-p

Love ya!
