Isn't She Lovely: updates vary

Book #1 in the themed love collection

Short Story #130: 12 • 5 • 14

***

This is for the girl that sits in bed at midnight tossing and turning in her covers. Perhaps imagining scenarios in which she gets her own prince charming or wondering how different life would have been if a certain incident didn’t occur. This is for the girl who stays up all night trying to finish a romantic novel and imagining herself as the main character. This is for the girl who doesn’t believe in love, yet is a hopeless romantic at heart. This is for the girl who shines bright enough to make a dark room light up. This is for the girl who has given up on her happily ever after. This is for all the insecurities we have, the hopelessness we feel and the thousands of romance novels we’ve read.

This is for us, for to love another we must love ourselves first.

This isn’t a story about falling in love, this is a story about loving yourself first.
