Happy

Sometimes I feel as though I am forever just getting through life waiting and hoping for the next best thing, planning on being happy, that I don't realize that I already am. Life isn't perfect. I don't know why I keep waiting for it to be. Maybe it's just that eternal optimist (or pessimist, depending on how you look at it) I have within me. But what life does have, in all of it's imperfection: perfect moments, perfect moments that suddenly make all the crap that EVERY single person experiences unimportant and no longer noteworthy (even if it is what you complain and talk about MOST of the time). It's that moment that the two-year-old that you've put in time out four times that day and who is trying your patience and the kindness of your humanity to the brink suddenly tells you he needs a hug and whispers he loves you in your ear. Or that moment your friend makes you feel incredibly loved by planning a swimming day knowing you miss the sun and water and he doesn't even blame you that you can't come, he loves you anyway. Or that moment you realize you've been lost in conversation with a friend for so long that the waitress of the restaurant has cleaned off your table twice in hopes you will get the hint and leave. Or the moment that boy who knows how desperately you are in love with him even if you're too prideful to admit it says the perfect thing to make you smile and happy without even knowing it. Or the moment you realize that you are so perfectly happy, no matter may be going on, you might as well blog about it because the world shouldn't miss out on the happy moments swirling around in the atmosphere. A heart can only stay heavy for so long before it either weighs you down in depression or it inspires you to find something to make it light, because there has to be something happy out there. So this post is just to remind you that being happy should be the only goal you need to obtain to be successful. Stop looking for all the reasons why life can suck and can make you want to give up and realize being happy the is the best choice, the only choice, if you really want to fulfill your purpose of being here.

Be happy, I love you.
