A Life in Black and White

am not your usual lady in the neighbourhood. i could be fun-loving and ambitions blazing, yet chilling with a good book in hand. loves audrey hepburn movies, lemon-lime-&-bitters, vintage anything and furniture. am not one effortlessly impressed. i see my goals, my dreams and the enjoyment would lie not merely in the success at the end of the road but in this journey of life. livin` it, lovin` it, keepin` it real. i travel alone, i travel light, in my 20`s - la vie est belle!

...and so it is...

After 9 months, the lady's dream has come to an end. Her wedding is no more. It has finally dawned upon her that if it never felt right, it never would have been right. Going with her heart might not have been the most sane choice, however going with her mind totally proved to be futile. In this little thing called life, perhaps, a balance of somewhere in between the two would have been ideal, but how perfect can her life be? Some say things don't have to be perfect, just perfect for herself. And so it is...she could never love to order. She needed more strength within than she had imagined it to be.

She keeps it all within herself because some things are best left private. What others say, what others think, all will fade into the shadows and dust. She knew what was real, and with a sigh, she trudges along. Disillusioned about love, she wandered, is love indeed just a possession and nothing more? Maybe she just couldn't fit into the role of loving in a certain way with certain habits. Different perspectives tore the two apart.

And so it is, just like the way it should be...most of the time...

Can't we try? Would you rather be with an empty shell? Yes.
Why think? If for the better, if for the greater good, the best is yet to be.
