I believe that sometimes being open-minded is the key to happiness. It's about your willingness and effort to explore things outside your normal. I've always believed you should be willing to try new things, even if it is something you didn't consider before. This can apply to people, bdsm, food romance or whatever!
Just give it a chance.
So go on and try a threesome or the rocky mountain oysters at dinner!
Bonus points if you know what that is ;)

As for me, I'm happy right now. I feel hopeful, blissful and peaceful. I've been exploring something special and the days have been treasured moments. I've also been living at the lake for a couple weeks now. I've postponed the job hunt for a bit to enjoy summer and just get back to feeling like myself. Being laid off after years with the same company was shocking and left me feeling adrift.
Nature and being outdoors is my thing. Hearing the rain on the camper roof, outdoor movie nights on the big screen projector, fishing for walleye and frying them up with Cajun spice late at night, jeĺlnga tournaments, outdoor showers, afternoons at the beach, baking in the sun, tie dye parties, carnivals, line-dancing, bonfires, I could go on and on. I'm going home tomorrow for a few days to do adult stuff like mow the lawn, check the mail, and pay bills. But then I think I'm coming back up to the lake. The hammock under shady trees is calling my name.
