Here's to Happy Endings


Feeling inspired by my new found love of Sex and the City, Carrie Bradshaw, and a good friend I thought I would try this out. Reading an entry from my friend’s blog I noticed she had mentioned something about everyone wanting a happy ending. The more I think about this post the more I think she is completely right. Everyone wants a happy ending. Think about it… some of us want it now, some not for a while but in the end isn’t that what we are striving for on most days, to find the happiness within our lives? I guess in a smaller version, the happy ending would be the ending to a perfectly happy day. I can’t help but think maybe this is the reason why the words “I love you” tend to get thrown around without true meaning anymore, bc everyone wants to find it so bad. The more I think (which is not always a good thing) the more I realize maybe this has been my problem lately. I am too concerned with the bigger picture, which is lovely but when things fall apart you have to focus on the smaller pictures to find the bigger one. Lesson #1 things fall apart and you either piece them back together or you walk away.  Whether you’re trying to put a relationship (or anything for that matter) back together or walking away from whatever it may be, know before hand that either option you choose is going to be tough. Which leads me to lesson #2 Do what makes you happy. Don’t give up or stop searching until you find that happy ending.  In the words of Carrie Bradshaw...
“Later that day I got to thinking about relationships. There are those that open you up to something new and exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up lots of questions, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started, and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you can find someone to love the you you love, well, that's just fabulous.”

  1. Frankie... this is so true! Carrie knows all. In turn she gets Mr. Big, but remember there was a decade of tears, laughs, trials, hurt, pain and lots of love to get there. Never give up! I love you!!!
