I have no idea how to explain this but I'll give it a try. Here we go. Good luck.
Sometimes in life we have a lot of time on our hands and we get thinking. It's just what we do. Now, I'm no chemist who can discover the intricacies of the brain but when you mix thinking with teenagers, you don't get happy stuff. But for once in my very youthful yet, how can I put it, experienced life, I felt something strange. Something so profound that my eyes started to suddenly melt in a warmth of sadness and uncanny joy. A wave of comfort. Surge of relief. I have no explanation for it at all. The only way I can describe it is a warmth that in a split second, showed me the beauty of life. I've been very religious for my entire life but I had my doubts. But this, this was definite. I could feel it. And now, writing this, at this very moment, have I realised that something, someone, has given me a mission. My reason for living. Everyone has one but it takes some longer to establish theirs than others. But I know now. I have to go out and help. Just help. Help people in the world. That's all I know and can do. And thank you if anyone is still reading, because putting down this in words has opened my heart to it. As John Lennon once said, "You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. And I hope some day you'll join us, and the world will live as one."
Thank you.
