Satisfaction

As I have said before, I'm on a diet. So far, I have managed to lose about 8 pounds or so; this might look impressive to some people, but for a person of my size is the equivalent of three sneezes. I still have a long way to go, but I'm doing well.

A few minutes ago, I was hungry and happened to walk by the vending machine. I stood in front of it for 30 eternal seconds, looking at whatever my ex-lover had to offer. There were many satisfying, fulfilling items in there, so picking one wasn't easy.

Suddenly, I said to myself "no, it's not worth it", turned around and walked away. I'm now having some instant oatmeal that I always have in my desk. I feel twice the satisfaction I would have had if I had chosen any of the candy bars I was looking at; but this satisfaction comes from a different place.

The healing has begun.
