This is Fruitycake The Raccoon. Why do persons have a harder time accepting they are happy than being sad? I just. Don’t. Get it.
I don’t know how I can explain this in a round about way. So I’ll just say it. The last few days, I’ve felt very happy. I can’t hide my smile because I don’t want to. I don’t need to. My happy seems to be contagious. Yes. To Brickle too.
We are good for each other. I know this in my heart. And you can’t argue with your heart.
But Brickle tries to hide his happy and to be strong for everyone. Especially Girl Person. So to see him forget all of that the last few days and just enjoying the space to be himself makes everyone happy.
Happy. Happy. Happy. When was the last time that you felt happy three times? I’m learning that travel is absolutely fun and adventure fills my soul.
But I’m also learning, as I experience new things and ways of life that happiness can come from having freedom. Freedom to be yourself. Freedom with space to run. Freedom with allowance for yourself to hear your own thoughts. And to listen to those thoughts.
I don’t know if I would have realized how much we needed some happy without this visit to the farm.
That’s the beauty of trying new things. Visiting new places. And meeting new faces.
You get to know yourself more only if you open your heart and take it all in. Happy. Happy. Happy. You can get there.
Being here on the farm has made me realize how much we need our own big space in this big world.
Being here on the farm has made us want to get to that little house in that Italy place.
We want us all there. Together. But until then, we keep experiencing. We keep our hearts open.
We keep feeling that happy. Happy. Happy. And we are taking direction from the feeling.
