I am an avid viewer of the TV show "Once Upon a Time." The more I watch it, the more I realize how it portrays our beloved fairy tale stories more realistically. It recounts all these fairy tales...with a twist. And that is how life truly is. It always has a twist. No one truly rides off into the sunset with their Prince, leaving behind all other cares in the world. Life isn't like that. It has it's ups and downs.
This scene shows one of the most joyous moments, followed closely by one of the most heart-wrenching moments, of the series.
And that is how my life has been as of late. I feel so euphoric one moment, and like someone is crushing my heart into dust the next moment.
Overall, the happy moments by far win over. I know Snow White & Prince Charming will defeat the Evil Queen Regina. But downfalls must occur before they get to that point. And that can be discouraging.
I look forward to the day when my Once Upon a Time...ends in my Happily Ever After.
I know it will be a while. I know I will have many heart-crushing moments in between. But it will come. It has to come.
I know this post seems very cryptic, and I'm sorry. I guess I'm just mainly writing to say, my life isn't perfect. Although I have some really exciting things occurring, I still have my struggles.
And that's all.
P.S. I got into BYU's English Master's program. More to come on that subject.
