I purposely chose to have a closed door as the cover to this poem. Why? Because in life it's important to see everything: let it be an accolade or an embarrassment, electrifying and exciting moments or those times where everything is blue, the bad, the good, and the ugly as a doorway or window to self development. When life hands us opportunities or doors/windows instead of prying that sucker open we stare at it hesitantly wrought by fear and what "could" happen. This poem simply highlights the need to take that leap of faith when it's in your grasp with its 50/50 chance of cruising amongst the clouds or falling flat on your face. Because let's face it, after this figurative fall, you CAN and WILL get up and another door will stand there... Wait'n. Don't let the fear of falling stop you from flying and don't let anyone stop you! You won't always have the wings to soar use 'em now while you can! When will YOU live?

I'm not Cinderella. Confused, right? I bet you it's the not part that confuses you. It's all true though. I am really not Cinderella. Sure, there was a girl who was at the masquerade ball that all of the guys fell for and she ran off when it was midnight - and don't forget she also lost her shoe - but that wasn't me. You know the story don't you? Prince Charming -who isn't even close to charming, in my opinion- goes searching for this 'Cinderella' across the stupid kingdom. But in this 'fairytale' it's different. The prince won't end up finding the real Cinderella. He'll be finding me. Just because Cinderella and I are the same shoe size and I happen to own the exact same pair of glass slippers...
