Life: It Just Gets Sweeter

Remember how my grief therapist, Tanya, helped me sort the shit out in my life back last year when my dad was first diagnosed with cancer?  She told me that if I would just find the courage to let go of the things that were a source of strife in my life (instead of hoping that they will change), I would make room for new things in my life that would bring me love, peace and joy.That bitch didn't lie.Things have been going well.  Really well.It started with just finding peace and solitude with the strife now gone from my house and my life.  I could just focus on doing me and being absolutely fantastic on my own.  I could have all of my time and energy to myself or share with the people that I wanted to give to, not the people who were demanding and unappreciative of it.Then, I started to meet new people and get involved in volunteering for causes that I care about.Then, I had the sweetest offer from the most beautiful woman to help me find ways to help my dad.  Our friendship grew and then, we started to see each other romantically.  After all, how could I not be attracted to someone who would spend time trying to help my father get well?Our casual dating took a sudden turn and I even remember the moment: She was spending the night and was in my robe with sexy fuck hair piled into a messy bun and a hot pair of nerdy librarian glasses on. She looked absolutely stunning.  One of my besties, Ande, came over and started telling us about her really fun night. I listened to Ande but watched my girl.  She smiled as Ande told us whatever she was telling us - I could hardly follow because I could not take my eyes off of this gorgeous creature.  She clapped and ran to hug Ande when Ande told us that a guy that she liked asked for her number.  She was just so happy because Ande was happy.  She derived her joy from the happiness of others and it took my breath away to watch her watch Ande.  It was at that moment that I realized that I was in deep.  She was no longer a girl I was dating; she was a girl that I now had feelings for.  She has been teaching me a lot of spiritual, zen things about energy, reiki, positivity and healing.  It has benefited everyone around me, especially my dad.  The fact that she is always thinking of ways to improve his cancer battle and helping me and my family shows what an enormous asset she is to my life.  There is not a time when I see her that she doesn't have some way to advance one of us in an area that we may struggle with.Example: When she knew I am in the home stretch of finishing my degree (less than 4 month until graduation!), she gave me a necklace with a rune symbol for completion on it to help me finish all of my tasks.  Whatever negativity that happens now just rolls off my back and I can't help but to smile and feel happy and positive.  When you are happy, you want everyone else to be, too.  It's a great feeling!My new sweetheart could not be more positive and each day that I know her better, I feel incredibly fortunate to have her in my life at this place during this time.Oh, and these little quotes on this post?  These are things that she has sent to me - I get them on a daily basis.  She is always loving, always encouraging, always positive and always ready to pour herself out for other people.  I am SO glad I followed the advice of my therapist by clearing out the negative things in my life to make room for the positive ones. It took some time and effort but making those decisions about what stayed and what had to go were the smartest decisions I ever made...
