disturbia

When we love, we always strive to become better than we are. When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too.
- Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist


*******

Liking somebody shouldn't be difficult.

It should feel like being on cloud nine. Free. Fluffy. Giddy. High. Completely gratifying even if it is utterly gratuitous. No frustration or insecurity can put you down for long because all you need to do is remind yourself that happiness is a choice, and that you choose to be happy. Not only is it contagious, happiness is also irresistible. And as long as you are happy, you are invincible. You become the better version of yourself and you see everything in a totally different light. And of course, throughout all these you're smiling.

It's so sweet it must be sickening.

@boying: That's correct. Though, life can be perfect. It just depends on how we define perfection.
