Last night I had a dream about something that used to be a great source of anxiety. That something is no longer a part of my daily existence, and hasn't been on my mind for quite a while.

I don't need to get into the specifics of what this something is, because that's not important.

What IS important, however, at least to me, is how I reacted upon waking.

I lay there, replaying the last few moments of the dream, and I remembered what it felt like when the scene I experienced was something I could expect to encounter during my conscious moments. I shuddered briefly at the thought, but then was quickly overcome with an overwhelming sense of joy, because it occurred to me that no matter what happens next, no matter where I end up, I know with absolute certainty that I will never, ever EVVVVVVVER have to worry about that situation resurfacing in my life again. And it's all because of steps I've taken. Because of things I've accomplished.

Today I can look back on that former source of grief and twitchy eyes, and say, "Ha ha, you can't touch me anymore!"

I can't even begin to express how happy this makes me. I was giddy about it for the first half of my day!
