mdlbearHappiness is...
- Lying in my wife's arms at 4:30 in the morning and weeping my first tears of joy because, after all my stupidity, she still loves me.
- Getting my heart back.
- Wise and patient friends. Thank you.
- Catharsis.
- Realizing that the first verse of Quiet Victories, which I thought was just there to set the scene, was more true and more important than I thought.
- Hearing her say "[recently] you've been as loving and attentive as the year we were married".
- Having her go happily back to sleep beside me.
