I still believe in fantastical things like Santa Claus, flying reindeer and love at first sight, knowing that it's the power at the heart of each of us that allows these things to be. I still dream of weddings, but rather than the bright white lace and flowers affairs of the past, I dream of you and me, a preacher, barefoot, a beach at sunset. I still sing and dance with abandon but the music plays on my terms now, and no one tells me what I really want, no one changes my mind. I'm the master of my destiny, the navigator of this ship, I'm who I want to be, when I want to be. I'm still young enough to believe in happily ever after but I'm old enough to know it's not a given. I can never be less than 100%, thirty-five year old, gravity afflicted ME, and if that's all right with you we just might have a chance. |
