Thrilled With This Life

i am confident, excited, enthused 
validation from every direction this world is good
the smell and shape of lavender lilacs uplift me 
the snuggle of a happy cat in my lap gives me joy 
the thrilled shriek laugh of an excited toddler makes my soul laugh

my soul is alive and happy
I am eager and glad to be alive
grateful to feel loved and respected, revered 
joyful for azure day skies and diamond encrusted nights
my soul is thrilled, super-satisfied with this life

Me either, Ilene. Attitude over actual here. I think I need one of these to pull myself out of the dires of pandemic hell.
