How Come?

How come I've changed?
So much more present in the "now".
So much more with people, and that connection! Ah!
So much more on the outside.
Is balance finally here and permanent?
How come?
Is it from a divine blessing?
Or is it time and meant to be...to move on?
Or is it something I worked on, moved through, and came out on the other side...opened up.
What is it? How did it happen?
I feel like skipping through a field in glee!
Smiling from the heart and saying yipee!
Oh sorrows be gone now, you have taught me much.
You have done your job of churning me.
No more chains on the heart and soul, because now I feel free!
