Fairytale

"You know how when you were a little kid and you believed in fairy tales,

that fantasy of what your life would be, white dress,

prince charming who would carry you away to a castle on a hill.

You would lie in bed at night and close your eyes

and you had complete and utter faith.

Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, Prince Charming,

they were so close you could taste them,

but eventually you grow up,

one day you open your eyes and the fairy tale disappears.



Most people turn to the things and people they can trust.

But the thing is it is hard to let go of that fairy tale entirely

cause almost everyone has that smallest bit of hope, of faith,

that one day they will open their eyes and it will come true."







"I still live in a fairytale, and it makes everything come true"

So I was thinking today about the clothes I used to love when I was younger...(:

-Clogs
-My trousers with a skirt round
-Leopard print
-Various printed leggings
-Coloured jeans ( I think mine were yellow )
&
-Sparkly heeled jelly shoes


I wish I still had these <3

"If you’re trying to show off for people at the top, forget it.

They will look down at you anyhow.

And if you’re trying to show off for people at the bottom, forget it.

They will only envy you.

Status will get you nowhere.

Only an open heart will allow you to float equally between everyone."



"Have I told you about the tension of opposites?

Life is a series of pulls back and forth.

You want to do one thing, but you are bound to do something else.

Something hurts you, yet you know it shouldn’t.

You take certain things for granted,

even when you know you should never take anything for granted.

A tension of opposites, like a pull on a rubber band.

And most of us live somewhere in the middle."
