I have three disclaimers to start.

First, don't read this book!

If you are looking for an academic answer, psychological fact, or philosophical argument about the meaning of life, then this book is not for you. The last thing you can do is to base your theology here, as much as you can, please don't. I'm not a scholar, I'm just an ordinary guy.

Second, read this book!

If you are looking for a friend who is open to share his feelings, questions, and reflections in life, then this book is for you. Here, you will read a simple testimony of a little boy searching for happiness – me.

For years and years, I've been searching for it. I wonder why I am not happy. I looked at my friends in social media and they seemed to be happy, traveling to different places, achieving goals, and having partners. Why not me?

Do you also feel the same?

One time I talked to a friend, an engineer, with a high paying job, healthy body, an amazing social life, and a girlfriend. He seemed to be the picture of a happy man for me. I was wrong. I was shocked when he opened up to me that despite of all he had and he was, he still felt sad, lonely, and empty.

I was like, "Huh?!" If having the things that we want will not make us happy, satisfied, and complete, then what can?

That's it! You got the right question! That's what we're going to explore. Together let us discover what is it that can lead us to a deep, lasting, and true happiness.

Third and last disclaimer, I am happy not because I am single, it just happened that I am both single and happy at the same time. To add to that, I am also poor and low-profile.

But still, how come I can say that I'm happy?

I am happy because I found a love life today. Yes, today!

This book is all about that. A collection of reflections in finding your love life every day.

My suggestion? Read one chapter of this per day and you will see, regardless of your status – single, in a relationship, married, complicated or confused, for sure you can find your love life too, one day at a time.

I pray that as you read this book, you may find a life to its fullness and a love that is eternal. The love life that you deserve and the love life that God wants for you.

With a smile,

Gelo
