it took so much time to happen but now it feels like it’s so soon

It was a big risk, but I was just laid off from a job I hated and had a fresh breakup on top of that. I had decent prospects as far as potential jobs go, but I wanted to stay in “the city” and I felt like I hit a ceiling in San Francisco. Plus, I’d lived there nearly my entire life. Thus, I had a suspicion that if I couldn’t be happy in New York City, then I wouldn't be happy anywhere.
That was a little over six years ago now and I’m the happiest I’ve ever been. A LOT has happened here, and I’ve dealt with a ton of grief, but man, I love it here. I have a great job, made some real friends and community, and am living outwardly as my truest self.
I’m sure I could’ve had this in SF if I tried, and I know that this lifestyle will change inevitably, but I love living in a place with an energy that emanates throughout the city.

something so deeply satisfying and comfortably predictable about them

you can’t examine it directly, only through its side effects. the feeling itself is beyond words, but we can make rough estimations of it through its byproducts. for me, the biggest one is a quieting feeling in my soul, like the thing in my chest stops kicking for a second when i’m with them. my constant desire to find the next big shiny thing fades away, and all i care about is understanding them as well as one human can understand another.
that, and the feeling that you get when you’re on one of those damned frogger rides and it drops from the top. everything in you screams that something is wrong but you cling to your harness and for a moment you laugh and you scream and you fly.
