Separation - A Modern Fairytale

Once upon a time in a land far, far away a girl met a boy and they fell in love. They were fantastic together, always laughing, living and loving. The world in its magical Kingdom gave them many exciting adventures together, some good some bad, but always interesting. For many years it seemed they had a perfect life. Except it wasn't really, especially during the many months when a curse fell on the girl and she got very, very sick. It was almost like the curse also fell on the boy and he too became sick. Except he wasn't. The boy made a choice and disappeared. Perhaps it was a bad choice but it was a choice nonetheless.

The girl got well again and knew that she deserved much, much better but understandably her mind sometimes gets filled with dark, scary thoughts. The girl sometimes feels that this is what happens when curses and wicked people enter the magic Kingdom and gets very, very sad. At times the girl cried so much she thought she would dry up and crumble to dust.

However, the girl is strong, some would even say resilient and as her body gets stronger, she hopes her mind will follow. She is not like your usual girl and never has been. She can be very stubborn at times, that's why she never gives up. The girl also has an awful lot of capacity to love and to be loved and perhaps because of this, s
he has lots of supporters in the magic Kingdom. She knows she would not be where she is now without them. 

It's scary walking through a forest full of frightening monsters, evil thoughts and bad omens but the girl's many Knights in shining armour, guards, fairy godmothers and protectors of the realm have all been there for her. The girl will be forever grateful and she hopes her protectors will always remain as the dark forest can sometimes still be very scary and overwhelming with its mean and nasty branches.

As the sun sets and a new year awaits, the girl is hopeful of a new dawn. But most of all she just wants to laugh more. To have fun. The girl misses that. She likes people who make her laugh and she hopes that she'll meet them as she embarks on new adventures. To fill a new chapter in the modern fairytale.

The end. For now.
