Over the last few months I feel I've had some big breakthroughs with acceptance, gratitude, and contentment.

But then I wonder- Am I just feeling sublime because after the torture of the first year after BD, even my normal depressed state feels like a picnic? Is this just a temporary inner peace I'm experiencing as a result of the contrast from the hell I went through? Or will I be able to anchor this perspective and keep it through future hardships? Or is it that even obsessing about this line of questioning is a form of discontent, or even a cause? Then I give up and scurry back to games where there are answers to questions in black and white.

Reminds me of George Carlin:

Some people see what is and ask why.
Some people see what isn't and ask why not.
Some people have to work for a living and don't have time for that ____.

Maybe there's something there beyond humor. I don't know. My bedtime. I think this post was NyQuil inspired. Love to all DBers, with people as awesome as y'all in this world I know it will all work out ok. Goodnight!
