Oh yeah....good old fairytales


When we're kids we like to listen to fairy tales,we like to play wth dolls...that's what makes us feel we rule the world and that everything will be perfect one day. Everything seems fine right? WRONG!We listen to fairytales and then we expect to live them one day...we start searching every day for perfection everywhere around us...I should know about perfection.My favourite fairytale is "The Little Prince" in which he loved a  single perfect red rose.But somehow I grew up and I've learned there is more to life than this.The rose was perfect because it was the only one...and after seeing something other than that he realized the rose wasn't perfect at all...it was actually pround and selfish.But he still loved it...in his own way...
Because there comes a day when we realize that things are not perfect,people are not perfect and most important of all,people are not quite as you dream them to be...and you should never have something concrete in your mind before really getting to know that person cuz you're throwing an amazing unnecessary weight on one's shoulders.
Just because one's not exactly how you wish him/her to be does not mean he/she is not worth it.It's funny...some people want everything to be exactly how they see it,and it's a shame because they lose everything in between.Seeing just want you want to see, knowing just want you want to know,hearing just what you want to hear is a waste of time and energy,you live for nothing real...it makes you rust inside!And the only one that loses is yourself!Not the judged one...because he/she is in peace with himself/herself and goes on breathing the fresh air of freedom!
And I'm glad we got to this part...because loving someone or just caring is all about letting go when necessary but holding on for when you're needed.Affection is not a golden cage in which you lock somebody up!It means handing them the wings and courage  to fly so they get back to you someday...and that will be the day you realize it's worth it!
So...perfection does not exist but you can make it be whenever you want ....but that requires to be open and to expect less and receive more!
