Not all fairytales have a happy ending. Not everything you wish for can actually do you good. Would you like it if your life changed in one flick of a finger? If everything that caused you happiness in the world was gone in a second? If everything you ever knew in your whole life was a lie? Do you wish to be like those princesses in fairytales? Do you get jealous of their perfect life and perfect body? Do you wish to be rich? To have your own castle? To have powers? To meet mystical and unknown creatures? Do you want a normal life? Do you want to be a normal person? Are you happy with who you are now? Are you contented? Even if your imperfect, even if your life’s imperfect, would you want that? Or would you rather want a fairytale disaster?

*please I wrote this story at 16/17. I'm 28 and I crying because I would rewrite this in a heartbeat especially coz I sound crazy* so read with caution* I fell in love. I fell in love with a fairytale. Oh Yes I did. You know that one story that gives every little girl hope out there that good things comes to those who wait even in rare but simple gems like a glass slipper. This hope carried me far and beyond. It's a fairytale that is relatable to any prospect of life. There will be your evil stepmother and evil stepsisters, your fairy godmother and your one true prince. It is a fairytale that understands the element of surprise: That what we seek can sometimes appear right in front of us without knocking on our doors. Most especially, it's a fairytale that understand the importance of love: A true prince may not come in shape of perfection but regardless of the imperfections and flaws, he would still remain perfect in your eyes. Regardless of its flaws, Africa was my father and Nigeria was my prince. Africa was my birthplace, born to the greatest warriors on the planet: Shaka Zulu, Nelson Mandela, Cleopatra, Kofi Annan even Didier Drogba the famous footballer. Most especially it was my home. It was the place I learnt to walk, talk, run and now 200000 feet above the ground I look down at my home. Little lights flickering everywhere like fireflies contrasting with the dark night. Maybe one day I will come back to my father. My prince. My Ile.
