Once Upon A Time

I love fairy tales. I love them. I love the hope, the excitement, the tragedy, the struggle ... I love what fairy tales represent.

Once upon a time, we all decided that we were going to be something. Every now and then we need to be reminded that, despite our struggles, despite the obstacles we may face, despite the timing not being quite right, our dream is still there. Reach for it. Fight for it. Endure.

Things that come easy are not worth claiming in your achievement column. Sometimes you will just suck at some things. But hey, keeping your head high and fight when you've got nothing left but a bologna sandwich, some curdled milk, a great friend and some music to make you realize that the basic idea of carnal passion (and self-belief) is enough to pull anyone through the rough currents.

Your ending might not consist of a prince on top of a turret. Mine doesn't. So what's your fairy tale? Come on...you tell me yours, I'll tell you mine :)
