“Cinderella walked on broken glass, Sleeping beauty let her whole life pass by, Belle fell in love with a beast, Pocahontas risked her life for a feast, Jasmine could have had anyone but she chose a poor man, and Ariel, she walked on land.”

So many people dislike fairytales because it makes us believe in love, believe that a prince will swoop down and save us when something goes wrong. But I’ve come to realise that in every fairytale-like movie, every girl took a risk. Took a risk for love, took a risk in the name of love. So, how do we know if our own fairytale won’t really happen if we don’t try, if we stop believing in love?

I know it’s hard for some of you/us to put down their guard and to learn to trust someone else sometimes. I know because I’ve been through it, trust me. People like us, we distance ourselves from people we genuinely like just because we are afraid to get hurt. But does building up these walls ultimately saves us from hurting?

It doesn’t.

I think all us girls will have to come to a point where we decide whether we've met that someone special enough to take that risk, to take a leap of faith to trust again in this thing called love. I did. Sure, i'm happy, beyond happy all thanks to God's faithfulness, grace and love that covered me and ken all this while. I'm not saying we haven't met our downs, we definitely have - and the army has been one of them. I remember when he first enlisted, i felt llike i couldn't do it. 1 month down the road, i wondered if it was just me that was still struggling with it. Then looking back, it's already been four months! We've come so far (': I thank God for his grace and His goodness and blessings, placing K at Mandai ever so near to the two of us, the YOGs though tiring but had it's use too, us living just a few km away from one another, for great 'in-laws' (as i'd like to call them) that always take good care of me and for a boy that loves me and treasures me ever so much i am sometimes speechless because i've never imagined someone like me to have recieved this much love from someone so magical.

I guess we're different, yet we are one and the same. We compliment one another with our differences and we treasure the similarities. I wear my heart on my sleeves, i say what i want to and i express love in various forms whatever i like and whenever. He is shy as ever, and when it comes to things close to his heart, because it is close to his heart, he's a personal personal fella. And i'm growing to appreciate that part of him, because afterall, this love is between us both. So WHO CARES! :D HEHEHE. Okay whatever. I just had a good time alone with God just now, and i'm happy okay?!

We'll leave that TAWG to another day. I'm tired, my hand is aching and my wrist kind of hurts from scooping today ): So goodnight!
