Contagious

I found my identifier. So I asked someone to describe me and one thing came up that I knew I couldn't let go. I am happy. I loved that and I realized then the most important thing in my life, what I am so passionate about it happiness. Not to be happy, no, but to show people why I am happy! I love love love to laugh all the time and even though people have tried to take that away from me or my life has given me reasons to cry this joy inside me has never died. I am so thankful for that and I know I will always carrying it with me. I am so proud to say happiness has become my identity.
You know when you smile for so long your face hurts? That's me at the end of the day and that's what I want everyday. I never want to stop laughing and smiling - come on you know you're smiling right now just reading this.
You know what my favorite moments in life are, the ones where you've laughed until tears ran down your face.
I love this joy that we have in life, the gift of an emotion that is so exhilarating and infectious. We can't stop it from spreading. It's something I will always share, always want to see and hear, always want to experience with those around me, because I have found hope. I have found joy in the truth that a man came to save my life. Someone bothered to love me unconditionally, after knowing me from beginning to end, He found me. He took a paintbrush to me and called me his masterpiece! He knows who I am and in spite of it all loves me and tells me who I am - I am His. I I am His daughter and He would rather die for me than live without me.
So I smile and laugh because I see Him smiling back at me. I laugh over the little things in my life because God placed them there for me. He cares about the little details and even provides circumstances just to give me the excuse to laugh today - and everyday - even in the midst of trials! My God doesn't just love me He is "in love with me" I feel it! And I am spoiled because of it. How can I NOT help but fall in love with the one who gives me a reason to smile today a reason to live today a reason to tell everyone about Him today. His joy is contagious and I (like David) unashamedly act like a little school who I can't stop giggling and skipping down the hallway. I'm dancing in the streets like David and I don't care what people are saying about me because they are probably laughing at how ridiculous it all is and they're 100 percent right. God's love is ridiculous.
