And then, even when everything seems so fake, it feels real. This is what I always wanted.... well, almost...

It's real, it's happening and it's happening now. That is all that matters... Could I be any luckier? Maybe. Do I want to be? Probably not...
Yes, life has been hard. Harder than it should have been? For sure... But I've come out a winner. I am the one that gained everything ...

Am I unhappy? Sometimes... But, the big picture is what matters, and right at this very moment, I am perfectly content with the way things are going.... well, I am only human, so I guess I'm not completely happy with EVERYTHING... But I am going to try and enjoy every moment I can.... :p
