One step at a time

My entire kingdom is now in the basement of my grandmother's house.  Our world is so small, yet I feel glorious.  I feel triumphant.  As each day passes, I move another step forward.  Although it is cold and snowing outside, I feel warm with hope.  My children have smiles on their faces once again.  I can smile and know that everything is ok.  Each day, I accomplish a new goal.  Each day brings a new beginning.  Each day is a step closer to my future.

I'm not focusing on romance or relationships.  I'm focusing on surrounding myself with the people that make me feel happy.  My friends and family have provided so much love and support, they have helped me understand that I have done the right thing. 

There are pieces of me that need to be put back together again.  As each piece is glued back on, I become stronger.  Each relationship I have been in has taught me who I am as a person, and what I want in my life partner.  I surely know what I don't want!  I don't want another broken heart.

A kingdom turned upside down

The kingdom no longer has its king or princess.  I'm sad.  It's tearing me up.  I don't regret doing what I had to do.  I had to do it for my Prince, Jester, and Knight.  I had to do it in order to get pieces of me back.  I am reclaiming my court.  I am fixing my castle.  Brick by brick, it will come back together again.  And by golly, if I have to do it alone, I will.
