The sudden realization that I am loved and cherished enough to be thrown a surprise birthday party for – no matter how late the realization – makes me so overwhelmed with happiness and gratitude. The fact that I have met two of my best friends for the first time, that I went to Boston and experienced for myself that yes, I was always right, Boston is home…that just reaffirms every single decision I have made.
And ladies and gentlemen, I feel on top of the world.
I’m sure I’ll forget this feeling but right now, on my way to Mississuaga, ON, I’m the happiest I’ve ever been with my life.
