In every great love story, there is a Prince, and a fair maiden. They meet and at once they are in love. Birds are singing, woodland creatures come near, butterflies flutter about celebrating their magical love… The Prince sweeps his Princess up and off they ride astride a beautiful white horse, to their glorious castle on top of a hill,where the air shimmers,
and the sunlight is the perfect shade of gold…
Life is a dream….
Truth is, this is a depiction of a fairytale, reality never intrudes. In real life love, there are ups and downs, illness, health, wealth and meager times. There are times when the birds sing at your windowsill, and then, there are times when a stranger comes by with an apple…
There are seasons when we are living in that fairytale world, and there are seasons of reality..
See, the fact is, in that fairytale romance, the Prince and Princess, share no reality, they meet in perfection and their love remains in perfection.. In real life there are ups and downs, highs and lows, there are victories and struggles.. This is why true love is always changing… this is why love grows… if you never cry through a struggle, you will never laugh in victory…
21 years ago, I met my Prince Charming…. He didn’t ride up on a white horse and he didn’t have a glorious castle to sweep me away too.. He was simply there… like magic…
He did have to slay a dragon though….Our life has been full of ups and downs, highs and lows, struggles and victories… and it is a perfect fairytale love, because it has grown, and strengthened. Life is not always about what you can gift to each other, or singing birds, sometimes it is about knowing, when life has handed you a bad apple, you have someone waiting for you. When it feels like your dream is dying, you have someone to remind you
and the sunlight is the perfect shade of gold…
