Life is a fairy Tale!

Remember my blog I begin sharing about a woman named Ella.  She was not a character from a fairy tale, like Fantasia, who shared with you that life is not a fairy tale.  Sometimes we focus on traumatic experiences of life we lose hope for a better tomorrow.  I know there was a time in my own personal life I wanted everyone to stop sharing delusional fairy tales with our daughters because life just does not end up that way for some.  But fairy tales give you a mental escape outside of your own reality.  A mental sabbatical or imagination is necessary to help people escape their reality. I call it our survival mechanism.  Some people call it faith because it is the evidence of your longing.
Well, I woke up this morning and begin to reflect on the journey. The story about a girl name Ella, not Cinderella.  Ella changed her name because of an abusive background.  Ella was the stepdaughter, who did not know her last name had any connectivity to being a child that belong to someone else.   Love unconditional was something she learned from a very young age, and she held onto God's unconditional love.  Her mother instilled an unlimited and unconditional love for everyone inside of her.   Ella was a child who loved everyone. At the age of four, she went deep into a dream world, escaped her reality.   Creating paper characters, which look like her, who represented a family.   She played hours, upon hours a day with imaginary characters. This family she created was unique, and they were so bonded that no outside influence could ever effect anything they harvest within their home.   It was a prayer for future that kept them encouraged.   It was the hope that someday her fictitious characters would too have that same balance in her home.   Her childhood dream was to get married, have children, and have a home.  

Today she is more than the name Ella or an imaginary character from someone's childhood.   Happily married with the best family in the world,  I am not insinuating they do not face challenges or that things are perfect for them, but this family makes everything seem simple.  You should listen to them as they share hope to each other. Their positive words of encouragement and speaking life into their family is the key.  They are blessed, protected, and unaffected by the trauma of this world. This family celebrates just being home without anything to do, but love and laugh with each other.  Family time with mommy, daddy, sister, and brother is the best quality time you can receive.

  Other than Christmas morning they enjoy the Superbowl Sunday, like it was a national holiday. This family eats snacks, plays around, loudly cheers loudly, laughs, and dances during the Superbowl.  You would think they had a personal attachment to the MVP, through their commentaries and praise.  If you came to their home, you would witness an interesting group of characters. Don't let a ridiculous commercial come on because this family gets super silly!  This family makes a small family seem like a stadium full of joy.   Even the neighbors come trickling in to witness the excitement exuding from their little home.  Doors remain open for anyone to come in and join. Ella's family has nothing but love in their heart and when you step into the door you will feel that magical influence touching your heart also.

  Ella's life is a fairy tale come true.  As an abused girl, who discovered love in my imaginary world which was an internal escape from reality.  Today Ella found a man who loves her no matter what.   He embraces her every emotion, and shares an escape path from her troubles.   This gentleman provided her with two additional streams in her life, through the implantation of the seeds he implanted inside of her.  Although her first seed may be unbonded to his DNA, he embraces him as though he was his very own, and maintain a connection you would never imagine.   This child belongs to him, and he dares anyone to challenge his love and influence over his life.  The security this man gives to his family is the best influence you could ever hope.  The Bible often talks about the shield of faith and the breastplate of righteousness.   This prince holds this covering over his home and dares anyone to step into the sword that sharply awaits to penetrate inside someone's heart. The truth is deeper than you would ever know because his first son is a reconnection of the lost child and twin he lost, born only days between his so-called blessings and tragedy.

Life is more than a fairy tale! My prince charming is full of grace, love, strength, and he holds the keys to my palace.   Your fairy tale can come true; if you pray, believe, and hope your fairy may come true also.
