So lately I have been very down on myself lately, and pretty much just thinking that the suckage wouldn't stop. Then I found some unexpected happiness. See my two best friends (one's my roomate, one's not) are both in very heavy relationships right now, and their significant others live on the other side of the country from us. This week they both came in to stay in Los Angeles, so now the two couples are whole again. Normally, this would make me very depressed and I'd spend the week lamenting about how I'm the only one alone, blah blah blah, you get it. But it's different than usual. I don't know if it's because I care more about my friends than anything, but seeing them with their boy/girlfriends, how complete they feel, and how truly happy it's making them has just filled me with such joy. I think I realized that while it's a great gift to experience something that makes you happy firsthand, it's also a wonderful gift to experience happiness through others. I don't know how anyone could stay unhappy watching love like this firsthand. It's like seeing a puzzle get put together or something, it just makes sense and it's really a privilege to get to see that love exists and what it looks like. And to finally see these two friends truly happy after months apart from their loves makes a big part of me feel complete, like everything might be okay.
