love happy

“When someone else’s happiness is your happiness, that’s love.”  I absolutely love that quote. By love, that doesn’t have to be a boyfriend or girlfriend or significant other. It can be a friend, too. At first, I didn’t relate with it at all. I can be quite selfish at times and only concerned about my own happiness. But over time, I’ve found someone whose happiness is my happiness. When they’re happy, I’m genuinely joyous. And that’s love. I don’t love them like a lover or significant other. I love them as a best friend. I found someone whose happiness is close to coming before mine, and I want them to be as happy as possible. That’s one of the most special things in the world.
