You know that feeling when you can't stop smiling and your mouth hurts but you don't care because you're happy so you keep smiling?

I do.

It's like this huge amount of joy cannot fit in your body anymore.

Like a firework just exploaded.

Like the smalest flame turned into a fire.

Your world hass just changed

My world changed.

And no, I'm not talking about love...

At least the kind of love between people

No...

It's love for youreself.

Love for what you do.

Love for your talents.

Love for doing what you love.

Because what's life if you don't do what you love?

What's life if every night you lie in bed with your eyes halfway shut you don't think:

I draw something today.

I wrote a song today.

I wrote a poem today.

I learned to play a new song today.

I danced a new routine today.

I finished reading a book today.

Yeah, that's what I'm talking about

That's what kind of love I'm talking about.

'Cause in the end this is what you're left with

Love for what you do

You might tell me:

"And what about people?

What about family?

What about friends?"

You're right, they matter too...a lot

But people come and go

People can't be with you all the time

But you? You're always with you.

Your heart is always with you.

Your soul is always with you.

Even when you don't wanna talk to anyone

Even when you want to be alone

You're never alone.

You have you

And you know what you need

And you know what you love

And that makes you feel better

It makes me feel better.

Love what you do, don't ever forget that.

So I love what I do

Even if this is called drawing,dancing,singing,writing...

Have you found what you love?

If yes you know alla about that flame and fireworks and joy

Joy...what a powerfull feeling.

Joy...

Happiness...

I wish I could be happy all the time.

Woah, can you imagine that?

It would be pretty awesome,huh?

But I'm happy nowand that's important as well

After all "now" isn't all that matters?

At least that's what people say.

So focus on now

I will, I promise

And it's a promise I intend to keep,

'Cause if you have "now" you have everything,

Right?
