The best years of your life...

I always heard that the best years of your life are your college years... Come to think of it; I always hear that the best years of your life are your childhood years. Ironically, I always hear that the the best years of your life are always in the past. That you never know that you are actually living the good years.

Today I went for a walk and I was thinking about life, my friends, my job, and my upcoming plans... and I realized that these are the best years of my life. I realized that life has all kinds of drama, bullshit, heartache, stress, and so many other nasty things... but when I thought about being at a friends for coffee, or hanging out at our favorite kareoke bar, or walking into my classroom in the morning, or my usual Saturday plans, or myriad other things I realized that I love my life.. I am living the best years of my life.

Optimistic much... maybe it is the yoga. Maybe it is something in the air. Maybe it is just the fact that I made a lot of great things happen for myself this year and I am proud. Maybe it is just being lucky to have the friends list that I have. Maybe I just kick ass....
