The term happiness cannot be contained or explained through words. No word is right word to explain the essence of happiness. Happiness is a spiritual element that is far beyond human explanation.

Although I still have brown eyes and dark hair‚ my age isn’t

It was from that point on that I decided to live everyday not only as if it were my last day of high school‚ but as if it were the last day of my life. I try my hardest to take my own advice and not think about my regrets in regards to the past‚ but instead
