Today

I've waited to hear what I was told today for months. This is exactly what I wanted to hear. The problem being the heartache that two people feel now and it's because of me. I'm feeling a mix of selfish happiness strained with a harsh guilt. I've never been so sure about anything before though. The heartache will go, the guilt will go. All that will be left will be the happiness and I will keep that there until the end of me. Strive to be happy.

How I met your mother

I remember the first time I saw how I met your mother, it was early one morning, bbc 2 just after I'd finished my GCSEs. I instantly fell in love. The concept was fantastic, it wasn't just a sitcom it had a definitive end. There was a point to the show and we knew how it would end. I followed the show as it moved from channel to channel. I watched online any chance I could. I watched every episode from the start until season 5 on a holiday from work, not leaving my room until is watched every episode again. I loved every character, except for Stella. Stella was awful. My hatred for her was large and justified. I didn't agree with meeting the mother before the final episode, that was until 5minutes before the end of the final episode. I won't put spoilers because I was lucky enough to avoid them but I was wrong to doubt the show. It feels like the end of more than just a TV show, never have I invested more time into something on TV than I did HIMYM and every single moment of it was fantastic. At some point I will watch every episode in a row and once finished I will start again. I could and probably will write my thoughts on every series at some point because never have I watched something so well thought out that I felt the need to appreciate it in such a way. I feel for my future children, when I tell them the story of how it met their mother, it'll take about 9 years too.

Some schmaltzy shit she'll never see

Every morning this week I've woken up in a fantastic mood because I've woken up next to her. Every night I've gone to sleep with a huge smile on my face because I'm sleeping next to her. Got about 4/5 days left of this before returning to real life, not looking forward to that.

do not disturb

Desiderata

Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and ignorant; they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time. Exercise caution in your business affairs; for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals; and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be critical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is as perennial as the grass. Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy.
