I Am Naive (and Stubborn That Way)
“How should we be able to forget those ancient myths that are at the beginning of all peoples, the myths about dragons that at the last moment turn into princesses; perhaps all the dragons of our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us once beautiful and brave."
~Ranier Marila Rilke, from LETTERS TO A YOUNG POET
Maybe I am truly naive. I live in a fairy tale world where everyone gets their happy endings except me. I may have forgotten the fact, too, that fairy tales are meant for a man and woman...
Another year has passed. I have survived the heartaches. On to the next ones, is it?
