Day One: A belief specific to childhood
I will always be my parent's princess. Okay, so I am not going to be unrealistic and say that I am going to delight in materialistic marvels or that I want to be spoiled rotten or that I want to be swept off of my feet by a perfect "knight in shining armor"; but I am saying that I want my life to be as realistically close to a fairy tale as possible.
I believe in love. I believe in an unconditional love with no restraints; a love that has expectations but that realizes that people fail. This love is evident in the purest form through God and secondly in my family. The man I marry will know this love and will show it daily. He will not be perfect but he will be an amazing blessing when our paths cross.
My fairy tale life has already started. It started the day God blessed me with my birth being into a family that is like no other. It has continued through the amazing friends I have had in "pretty school", elementary school, middle school, and high school. College elevated my fairy tale to a whole new level of captivation. I go to Kennesaw State, a school that is amazing despite the misconception people have of it being dull or boring. I have two different forms of family here, both track and through the brothers and sisters of Christ I have found here. I have family all over the country and now even in Europe. God is revealing beauty to me in every day even now as a 20 year old. I will never believe in fairy tales in the unrealistic Disney way but I will ALWAYS believe that life is magical. "All people die but not everyone lives" is not a quote that will be applied to my life by anyone. My life will be filled with laughter, smiles, and joy; it will be filled with moments that take my breath away and experiences that put butterflies in my stomach. My life will not be average.
