Imagine That

It never hurts to imagine yourself as someone else or maybe something else entirely. Each of us has this urge to be something more, something better, it's just part of being human. For some it becomes so overwhelming that it can over power their lives. For me I always wanted to be that someone better, I just never lived up to my standards. Then I married a man who drug me down a terrible path that made me feel worth even less, if that was even possible. I spent many years depressed because I wasn't who I thought I should be.

Toward the last 2 years of my married I began writing a book called Sweetps Big Dream, during that time I began to live the lives of my characters. I didn't really live their lives but when I closed my eyes they were always there. It was kind of like my life boat and as I wrote this book it began to pull me out of my real life and made me realize that there was nothing wrong with who I was. No, I wasn't perfect, but who is? It's not until you live in someone else shoes that you realize that no matter how tough your life is, it's your life to live. Only you can make that life better. Smile through the tough times, hold your head up high and show the world how proud you are to be you. Maybe someone might want to imagine to be you.

I walk around with 2 fairies on my shoulders, one is an innocent looking one and another is a rotten one. They symbolize who I am on the inside. A little fairy busting out on the inside, wanting to spread her wings and fly high above this world and away from all the pain. Now I just imagine to be that fairy. I don't ever want to be anybody but myself, because I am me and I am perfect just the way I am.
