...the other side of Cinderella!

as in Rella's side!!

I seek and appreciate beautiful things

....shoes, clothes, food,

items to beautify my home with...

you know, basic stuff most girls like! 

and today I was day dreaming while dying some slips a wonderland blue

and I was thinking to myself how beautiful is this color ~ blue ~

then I started thinking  

 what is beauty, and who decides what beautiful is? 

Here are my thoughts

In the wake of the tragedy in Haiti ~

I think it's fair to say that life is not always a fairytale!

and most of the time, we just didn't ask for this!

and I dare say

that not very many of us

have not had the wind knocked out of us

HARD at one time or another!

and wouldn't you agree

that instead of complaining about it,

 that there are times when it is necessary

to simply put up your hair, roll up your sleeves

and put these on instead!

because stuff happens!

and it's quick,

like no time to think quick!

and it is in these moments...

these come at you from nowhere moments

that I want to be beautiful...

not outside per se,

but inside!

that's what I mean by Rella's side!

At the ball, Cinderella was elegant and beautiful to look at on the outside,

but most of the time, she had her hair up and her boots on!

Each of us are unique,

... in our talents,

in our gifts

and in our beauty!

We need to believe in ourselves and know that each and everyone of us

 has something wonderful to share.

And that we make our own fairytales by how we chose to live everyday! 

and I think it is in those moments,

 the everyday moments

that we allow ourselves to be who were meant to be,

that we are the most Beautiful!
