out of a dream

I grew up watching Disney Princess movies and that fantasy of getting to meet my Prince Charming someday and living happily ever after somehow managed to lurk it's way into the recesses of my brain. Till' this very day, this fantasy still holds a place deep down, at the core of my heart.

I still believe, unconditionally.

Simply because I know that the Lord above isn't so cruel as to - be it a man or a woman - breathe life into a human being and not make another human being as compatible enough to share his/her beautiful life with. Because I know that there is one in this world for everyone, as the saying goes, "There are many fishes in the sea". Sure there are millions of fishes in the sea but it's a matter of actually taking the initiative to dive into those deep blue waters and setting your heart out there to find the right kind of fish. As harsh as this may sound, there's only a one in a million possibility that this saying, "Love will find me when the time is right" actually does happen.

As women, we have expectations - most of which are unrealistic and superficial - based on what we ourselves bring to the table. I'm not saying having expectations is a bad thing but let's be realistic here. No man in this world will ever be good enough for you if you're willing to wait for the man who meets your wants. He just doesn't exist, especially if you're list consists of unrealistic wants.

While other girls dream and have high hopes for their Prince Charming to come riding on a white horse, sword at hips length, whose eyes a dreamy blue, whose hair is properly combed back and whose face is nothing but flawlessly beautiful... I want nothing of that sort, much less dream about it.

In this modern century, all I want is for that someone- anyone - who can sweep me off my feet and make me thank god everyday for my being with such a man. He should be worthwhile. Most of all, he should be good enough to deserve me. That isn't too much too ask for, is it? (It's the reply to Prissy's Facebook status, a few days ago).

... because no man is ever worth your tears, and the one who is will never make you cry.
