Good things

I don't know why some things seem to work effortlessly and others don't, but I am beginning to realize that spending too much time worrying about it is like kicking a tiger in the tush. He will surely turn around and bite you if you keep it up.

I have been able to stick with a new lifestyle for a month come Monday and it has been relatively painless.

That both thrills and terrifies me.

I need to keep it up in order to live the rest of my life decently, so I don't want to jinx, or mess up whatever is making it work.

I've done similar things in the past. Once it worked for nearly ten years before collapsing in upon itself. Other times? Not long at all.

I guess I can only count my blessings, or list all the things I can be grateful for, or any other thing guaranteed to keep the serotonin pumping through my brain, because this is a good thing.
