She is Complete!

Her Story:

 

When I was a little girl, I had dreams that made me happy. I would tell anybody who sat me with for more than 5 minutes who I was going to marry, how many children I would have, what my house would look like etc...

 

To dream wasn't a chore back then as it is now. Mud pies and dolls missing their limps but not my love would keep me pleasantly occupied on Saturday afternoons.

 

Then I got older and people began to laugh and label me unrealistic when I told them my desires.

I began to believe that it would hurt less to just be quiet about the pictures in my mind.

And suddenly, I labored to concentrate on playing out the dreams in my head.

This confused me, for dreaming used to be the one thing I did so easily.

 

Then you grow up, and life jostles you around. And before you know it, you've acclimated yourself to being labeled as shy as you retreat to a uneventful life of solitude..

 

The setbacks creates the need for an escape, and all of a sudden, you start thinking about about why you stopped dreaming ...

 

There is no absolute right, but there is a RIGHT for you.

Own you dreams. Don't ever be afraid to close your eyes and dream....
