One of my favorite shows throughout college was Grey's Anatomy. Something about each and everyone of Meredith's monoloues in the beginning and end always touch me in way or the other. Anyways, I am home preparing for a wonderful long weekend (woot woot for Labor day) and caught a really old episode of Grey's.... Here was the intro:
“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’s 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.”
Life is based on faith. We can accept the fact we are adults and that things don't always work out the way we thought when we were a little kid but what if our fairy tale just changes as our life changes. We can modify our fairytale and always have hope and faith that there is something to look forward to!
I once was told that happiness happens when you have something to love, something to do, and something to look forward to. Are you happy?
