When she smiles
This is the story of a girl. She used to be afraid. Afraid of everything the future, the past, love, life, friends, family, tomorrow and yesterday. She had a lot of growing up to do and it seemed like that couldnt happen unless she just did it. So she did. She closed her eyes and jumped. But then she realized here I am falling with my eyes closed and whats the point in that so she opened her eyes. Yes. She opened her eyes and took in the world around her. Because whats the point in living with your eyes closed. Shes not scared anymore. (Except of frogs but thats another story) Shes not scared because shes this amazing girl who alone or not can make it. She really can. She has. Shes made it and shes happy and she loves waking up. She knows theres going to be struggles and hard times but she welcomes them with open arms because without pain there would be no pleasure and without sorrow no happiness. Besides everytime a challenge presents itself, thats just another oppurtunity to prove how strong she really is by overcoming it. Shes in love. With this guy who is the only person that knows her deepest secrets and the only person who knows her weakness. He holds her heart and his words have her thoughts. She knows who she is but when their together its like he makes her want to be a better person. She feels like it really is all okay. Cliche? Yes. True? Yes. Her greatest accomplishment also being her biggest fear. She doesnt know what tomorrow holds but it doesnt scare her anymore. Because she knows that no matter what tomorrow is coming whether she wants it to or not so theres no point in dwelling on what happened yesterday or even today because none of that will matter. Tomorrow is a new day. This is the story of a girl. Its far from over because her book has a lot of blank pages and who knows how they’ll be filled. With love and hate, Pain and Pleasure, Peace and War, Laughter and Tears. Life. Her pages will be filled with life.Maybe she’ll join the Peace Corps
