. . . cinderella is a liar . . .

. . . it's been a long time
since i've been asked
to sing in public . . .
. . . which is probably
why i'm kind of nervous
about doing so next week . . .
. . . i've been concentrating on
learning the alto part of
{it's pretty easy}
. . . but the lyrics . . .
. . . i've heard them
practically all my life . . .
{a quick google check tells me walt disney's animated film
was made in 1950 - eight years before i was born.
so . . . yes practically all my life}

. . . anyway
~ the lyrics ~
especially these:
"no matter how your heart is grieving,
if you keep on believing,
the dream that you wish
will come true" . . .

•F•A•L•S•E•

. . . lately, i just see
too many people i love
who are suffering . . .
. . . people i love who are believers . . .
. . . their wishes are not coming true . . .
. . . there is sickness . . .
. . . there is pain . . .
. . . there is sadness . . .
. . . there is a lot of grieving . . .

. . . so ~ sorry, cindy . . .




. . . your sweet song
could only be true
in a fairy tale . . .

{and i really wish i were playing the piano instead}

maybe we could rewrite one with the correct lyrics...."come what may and (try) to love it"... or ... "happiness is a choice (remember that when you feel like crapola)...

all-in-all....it's about trying to focus on the good things we DO have in life. I'm just glad I don't have to clean the hearth and take all the abuse Cinderella took from those horrendous women!! I for one, have only wonderful women in my life...and a great prince charming.
