Life is not always as we once "dreamt" it would be. The knight in shining armor doesn't exist & certainly prince charming doesn't arrive on a white horse. Almost no one really ends up with a white picket fence. I know of no one who has 2.5 children. Hardly anyone grows up to become what they "dress up" as when they are playing as a child. We don't ride off into the beautiful sunset at the end of every day. I believe we CAN live happily ever after ... we just don't know when that "ever after" is going to start!
As an adult, I've had my full share of crappy days (months, years) ... I've had my heart broken once & trampled on a few times as well. BUT- as a recent conversation went, I appreciate the good stuff all the more, because I've struggled at times to get to those times. SO YES ... when people comment that I'm spoiled or sarcasm tip-toes in because I'm called "the princess", I just wanna shake 'em .... because they don't know the back story. They don't know the cast of characters that have passed through my life. They don't know squat! SO- it may have taken a few rewrites ... but my life is based on a true story. I own it, I appreciate it, I deserve it.
the end.
