I looked out the window at the snow and wondered is this how normal people feel?
I spoke to someone at work while looking at them in the eyes and felt self-assured, funny even.
I wasn’t overthinking. I was calm and relaxed.
I had a skip in my step; newfound energy. A lightness that I hadn’t felt in years.
I was playful but strong.
I was confident.
I was kind.
I was present.
I was optimistic.
I was hopeful.
I woke up in the night smiling.
I looked forward to a new day.
Is this how normal people feel?
