moving into my first house

When I was younger, I used to think life was a fairytale, and that 'happily ever after' was just a given. A pure-hearted girl with naive and wonderful intentions would strive, with conflict, for life, love, and why. Achieving it soon after the right decisions were made and the correct amount of effort expended. No added words. None taken away.

There are days, that still occur, when I believe it’s important to be un-jaded, to have the heart and the passion of your teens and your twenties. Yet the older I get, the more pragmatism and realism sets in, the more I realize that my ideal life does not exist, and that every direction I could turn is still scary and difficult and imperfect.

I love run-on sentences. I don’t know what I want at all.
