Over ten years ago I bought a little plaque that said, Once in a while, right in the middle of an ordinary life, love comes along ... and brings you a fairy tale.
My life, in general, often has fairy tale overtones, both evil and miraculous. Life is what I make it. Not that I can turn sorrow into joy, but I can get through it and find the light that follows most storms.
That being said, I allowed myself to fall into the rut of thinking a plain ordinary life was all I can expect forever more and I was wrong!
A mystery so huge I cannot even look at it too closely has come into my life. Within it lie treasures greater than any you might find in the dragon's lair, but it makes no promises. What fills me today must be enough and I must understand that fairy tales can crush you if they fall apart.
And still, in the way of fairy tales, it fills me so divinely that I would risk everything for any moment in this mystery. There will never be any regrets, no matter what happens.
