Suddenly I'm Happy

I actually wasn't looking forward to working today, but I found myself sitting in front of my computer early here in the office as usual. I finished my pending research from yesterday. I also got an early YM message from J, which surprised me. I was expecting another boring day. From one YM identity, I switched to another, and found Billydee online. He's a friend from way back in college, actually. A very good friend. I sent him a message.

We chatted, of course, reminiscing the good old days. Here is a man whose maturity and wisdom are inherent, contagious, and efficacious. (grandiose ba?)

The world suddenly seemed brighter.

I wish he were in the country, though, because I forgot to thank him for making my day right.


Breathing - Lifehouse

I'm finding my way back to sanity, again
Though I don't really know what I am gonna do when I get there
Take a breath and hold on tight
Spin around one more time
And gracefully fall back in the arms of grace

I am hanging on every word you say
And even if you don't want to speak tonight
That's alright, alright with me
'Cause I want nothing more than to sit
Outside Heaven's door and listen to you breathing
Is where I want to be

I am looking past the shadows
Of my mind into the truth and I'm trying to identify
The voices in my head
God, which one's you?
Let me feel one more time
What it feels like to feel
And break these calluses off me
One more time

'Cause I am hanging on every word you say
And even if you don't want to speak tonight
That's alright, alright with me
'Cause I want nothing more than to sit
Outside your door and listen to you breathing
Is where I want to be

I don't want a thing from you
Bet you're tired of me waiting
For the scraps to fall
Off your table to the ground
I just want o be here now
