You know how when you were a little kid and you believed in fairy tales, that fantasy of what your life would be? White dress, high heels and a prince charming who would carry you away to a castle and live happily ever after. You would lie in bed at night and close your eyes with complete and utter faith. Santa Claus, Fairy godmother, Prince Charming, they were so close you could taste them. But eventually you grow up, and one day you open your eyes and the fairy tale disappears.

But the thing is, it’s hard to let go of that fairy tale entirely, because almost everyone has that little bit of faith that one day they would open their eyes and all that they had dreamed of would come true. At the end of the day, faith is a funny thing. It turns up when you least expect it. It’s like one day you realize that the fairy tale is slightly different than you dreamed. The castle, well, it may not be a castle. The prince, may not necessarily be prince charming. And it’s not so important that it’s happily ever after, just that it’s happy right now, yes?

See, once in a while, once in a blue moon, people will surprise you. And once in a while, someone may even take your breath away.
