Dance as though no one is watching you.
Love as though you have never been hurt before.
Sing as though no one can hear you.
Live as though heaven is on earth.

I'm going to love you like the last night on earth... [
]

There is a girl. From the moment she wakes in the morning, there is a smile on her face. Not a smile that is put there to try and make the world believe that she is happy. This is a smile that is completely genuine and reflects the happiness that she feels inside. From the moment she slips out of bed, that happy face is moving around the confines of the house, a song on her lips, humming away as she prepares breakfast or moves around the house completing the tasks that need to get done before she heads out for the day. However, despite the happiness that seems to flow from her in doing just the small mudane tasks that calls her attention, that is not her favourite part of the day. Yes, she takes joy in many things and loves each and every part of her day. Of course, there are some parts of her day that she doesn't like as much, but there is always something good that this girl finds in everything she does. But as mentioned, that is not the favourite part of her day at all.

You see, in this girl's life, is a boy. A boy that makes her so happy that from the moment she wakes in the morning, to the moment that she closes her eyes at night and falls into a slumber there is always a smile on her face, or a happy laugh echoing through the house. And by far, her favourite part of the day is waking up in his arms. In those arms, she feels a peace and a safety that she has not felt for a long time, in fact, she feels that she has not felt quite that safe, or quite that at peace in her entire life. She might have come close, however, nothing compares to the way this boy makes her feel. She loves nothing better more to wake in his arms, and lay there watching him sleep. Or even better, waking to find his eyes on hers, with nothing but the peaceful morning surrounding them, and no one in the world but the two of them. Now those are her favourite parts of the day. And each moment like that, she cherishes like no other. She knows those moments are the most precious, and that some days, she will not be able to have those moments. So for now, she will make the most of every second with this boy.

She hasn't always known this boy. She hasn't always had him in her life, but she is so glad that she has. She has met many frogs disguised as princes along the way. However, the magic wears off, and she is left with nothing but a broke heart. But she can tell this time is different. How does she know? She just knows. She knows that many people try to define love, but for her, she knows it something that you can't put into words, it's something that you just feel. And this girl knows that the love she has for this boy is real. She knows by the way her heart races when he's standing close to her. She knows by the way his hand fits perfectly on her lower back and a shiver of pleasure rushes down her spine. She knows by the way he will do anything to make her smile. She knows by the way he kisses her, causing her to go weak at the knees. There are so many ways that she knows that he loves her, and knows that she loves him. But most of all, the reason she knows the love the two share is how she feels when she's with him.

Despite the fact that this boy and girl have not been together for that long a time, she knows that there is possibly a forever in their eyes. This girl knows that one day, he is the man that she is going to marry, and one day start a family with. That doesn't mean that she's going to run off and do it all right now. Because she knows there is time. She is happy with the present, and whatever the future holds, she's willing to wait until fate decides it's time for them to move onto the next chapter. But it's something that she knows, and has become increasingly more and more certain about in recent weeks. And she loves that. She know that nothing is certain in life these days, but she feels secure in her relationship. After heartache and feeling like she would never find love again, or more importantly find herself again, she knows what an influence this boy has had on her life. A positive influence. While she can't guarantee how life will turn out, for now, she's pretty damn happy, ready to take things one step at a time.

So yes, each day, this girl is happy. It's not a mask that she once put on to try and show the world she was done okay. This is a genuine happiness. Life feels how it should be. Life feels good. And once again, she feels like she can truly enjoy herself, and most of all, enjoy life. Each morning, she looks forward to waking up and seeing what the world has planned for it. Maybe there will be a few bumps in the road, but this girl knows that she will be able to get through those rough patches. She is happy, she had found herself again, she had found love again, and if she can go through each day with that boy beside her, she knows that everything will be okay. So yes, there is a girl. This girl has found happiness. This girl has found love. This girl has found her Prince Charming.

And that girl is me.
