You are the best thing that ‘s ever been mine
Maybe someday I’ll get to send this to someone and mean every word of it. Someone who’ll appreciate and reciprocate a similar feeling. But if it doesn’t happen, then that’s okay. Life wasn’t meant to be a fairy tale in the first place. We gain some, we lose some. Sometimes, dreams do become a reality, other times, they remain what they are- an illusion, fantasy.
Maybe someday, he’ll come, sweep me off my feet, maybe he won’t. Maybe he’ll be everything I have ever dreamt of, maybe he won’t be. And maybe, just maybe, there wouldn’t be a he. Maybe it’s just going to be me. Living and thriving on my own, dusting my cold cellars and being my Prince Charming, at the same time, my Cinderella. And at the bottom of it, maybe there won’t even be a me anymore- that’s also a possibility.
In any case, I aim to spend the rest of this unknown possibility being the best version of me, dreaming my dreams and hoping for victory because in the end, a life well lived is equivalent to all the dreams achieved and to those dreams that lay beyond in the oblivion, like, having a Prince Charming, having the best thing that’s ever been mine, to them I say-
I’m glad I lived a life positive enough to have such dreams and if someday, the sun rises and there isn’t a “me”, I hope that someone, somewhere will read these words and go- “darn, she lived the best of her life” and if not, then I can dream that too. That’s the best thing about dreams, anything is a possibility in that realm.
This is me saying, go on dreaming, go on living and know that you are perfect enough to handle being both your Prince Charming and your Cinderella. It is an amazing feeling to say to someone “you are the best thing that’s ever been mine” but what’s more amazing if being able to say it with conviction to the person we see when we look in the mirror.

Hi Ameena : “………. but what’s more amazing is being able to say it with conviction to the person we see when we look in the mirror.”
The above is such a strong and crucial statement and, I would suggest, is the test for personal happiness because if you can say that to yourself and mean it ……… then you must surely be happy! 🙂

Oh, this is the best thing I read all day. Being your own favorite sums up for everything that could or couldn’t be yours.
Life is great if you know what you want from it. To dream and to work hard is everything.
Great piece!

You’ve left me no choice but to reflect on positive self-regard … hug attack you for sharing this with us (and because I’ve missed your posts) … ask if you’ve read “Girl, Stolen” yet … and reblog this on Wednesday (with your permission, of course). ^_^

Awww, you have my permission Izzy. Reblog away! :D.
Yeah. I did read girl stolen and i loved it. I also read another book of the author, (the night she disappeared) which i dint like as much as girl stolen. I love how the author ended the book, with him calling the girl, and how the author let us fill in the blanks in regards the girl’s answer

Such great news (about reblogging and that you did read Girl, Stolen). The ending left me wanting so much more, in a good way. Supposedly, there’s a sequel on the way (but again, “supposedly”). I haven’t read April’s other books but I’ll check them out soon and keep an open mind about them lol.

Fantastic message, Ameena 🙂 This is exactly what I’ve been praising lately! We must be, not only our prince Charming, but also kind to ourselves. We must praise self love! We can’t keep waiting for someone to mend the holes we have inside, we must learn how to fix them. And when Charming finally appears, claiming to have got misled by his newest GPS, we know we did alright when we were all by ourselves 😉
