A little girl’s dream
When I was a little girl, I used to imagine happily ever after scenarios, but as I began to grow up, I slowly came to realise that’s not how life really is, well not my life anyway. That we constantly have to work at things, sort issues out and even then we may not get the happily ever scenario.
Years on and looking at my life and given what I’ve had to deal with physically and emotionally, I’m definitely not looking at a happily ever after scenario, but in my usual optimistic way I shall continue …

Things to change
We will always fail to please others when we fail to please ourselves, we will always fail to trust others when we fail to trust ourselves and we will always fail to be honest with others when we’re not honest with ourselves. We will also always fail to communicate with others when we fail to understand ourselves.
