You walk around with a very positive smile lurking behind your face ready to pop out with the slightest provocation. It's the exact opposite of depression and it's a million dollar feeling.
Not the best of tunes but it's certainly got 'bounce' - come on Rita you could do better - but do you ever feel like this? To compose well , it has to come from 'the soul'. (Which reminds me - Where's that Christmas present you promised us with you mandolin).
So why am I feeling this way? That's a tricky one. It could be because I'm doing quite a lot with lots of different people and what I'm doing is going well: Chess in the Square, Kites in the Park, Discussions on several fronts with SLDC officials, Raised beds at the allotment, Supporting pottery and candlemaking, Playing my clarinet and piano, Story telling, Campaigning, Writing, Being helped to buy stuff on the Internet with Paypal and quite important, Steering clear of the totally draining submissions to ineffectual politicians (realising you can achieve far more without them).
Long may this feeling continue - but of course this is just a high - lows are waiting round the corner but they are part and parcel of these highs.
