FRACTURED FAIRY TALE

Once upon a time there was a girl who didn't want anything but true love.

Ever since she could remember, she always had a wish for that white picket fence, a happy home with the perfect husband and wonderful children that loved her and needed her very much.

That was 19 years ago.

This girl is now older, and much wiser.

No white picket fence, but there is a privacy fence in the back.

Sometimes her home is happy, but almost always dirty and in desperate need of repair.

The perfect husband happens to belong to someone else.

And the cats and dogs, the bird and the snake, and all the critters she's taken in through the years do love her and need her very much.


What the fuck was I thinking?

Pretty much what the rest of us were thinking - and the same fractures! {{{{W}}}}

There ain't no perfect anything, baby girl - except perfect asshole.

It ain't a thing.

Life always fall short of our childhood dreams. I try to focus on what I need rather than what I want. Sometimes it's hard to distinguish between the two.
