What is it?

She couldn't describe this excitement bubbling over from deep inside.  It's created something not anticipated.

A few months back, taking a leap of faith, making change.  It was the most terrifying thing done.  So much that she had to hide herself from the world for a short time.  Afraid that everything she was told was right.  She can't, she wasn't able and she shouldn't.  Then one day...

She did.  

She was told she can't .. but did.  

She was told she wasn't able .. but did.

She was told she shouldn't .. but did.

Then she started to take a step forward, letting things go.  Not being the person she was just a few days before.  Falling down, she didn't have much faith that she could get back up but .. she did.  

Deep breaths, she pushed herself out and started to let things be again.  Every single day became brighter, each breath, easier, each moment, lighter.  

What was it she was feeling?  Overwhelmed with gratitude, she wanted to pin point "it" A new passion, drive and even perhaps reason to get back up.

Everything just started to be okay.  Funny, she thought, how words can have the most control over you, can create who you are, what you become and how your life is determined.  

The key is to wake up out of someone else's perception of what life should be and start living it yourself. 

She started to hear the birds sing again.  Breathing deeply, filling her lungs completely without feeling smothered by doubt.  Finding passion wake from deep inside, discovering this feeling comes from not one soul other than herself.  More importantly, she was finding how to be happy again.  

That feeling you gain from learning you can, you are able and you did.  Happiness makes one bounce when they walk, glow from inside, drives passion, creates strength for others. 

She saw the light and went to where it felt warm.  The truth is simply, to find happiness you need to look within.
