I know my time in life is finally coming to a full circle and I now have the courage to write this.

When I was a child I grew up believing in fairytales and happy endings like every little girl. I couldn't wait to grow up, meet my knight in shining armor and be swept off my feet. The older I grew, the more sensible and pragmatic I became. I even stopped envisioning that it could happen to me. Still regardless there were times I desperately wanted to imagine my happy ending and hope it could happen to me and guess what, it did. I met the one I would always love, the one my heart would always beat for.

At first he loved me back just as much as I loved him but somewhere along the line his feelings changed and I found myself left alone and empty. I stayed by his side hoping everything would get better. The longer I stayed the more I found myself in states of sorrow and despair. My happy thoughts were of memories of how things used to be. Leaving me yearning for feelings I no longer seemed to have in my grasp. It made me wake up, realizing that it was time for me to let go in order for us to be happy.

Why do I want to bring up painful stories you ask? Because even though my story may start off sad, It doesn't mean my ending will and with that I leave you with my story. Until next time.

Forever with Love,

Chae Rin Lee
