storytime.<3

here’s my story from my journal entry last night. it wasn’t something i planned. i was feeling not so great. and it just came out. some might interpret it a certain way, others another way. do what it what you will. just learn one thing: don’t give up. on your dreams. or your love. or your life.

once upon a time, there was a little boy. he was a lonely boy, hidden behind a wall of vines and thorns. everyday, he stared at the wall, hoping someone would care enough to overcome this wall and become his friend. days past, but nobody came. little did he know that…once upon a time, there was a little a girl. everyday, she would walk by this wall. everyday, she tried to think of a way to get over the wall. people laughed at her naive ways. they told her that she was stupid for even trying to get over the wall. they told her a monster was hiding behind the wall. they told her nothing good would come out of that way, that many had tried and failed, that no one could get over it. but, she didn’t believe them. she kept trying, because deep inside her heart, she knew there was something amazing hidden behind that wall. she began cutting away the thorns and vines, slowly but surely. she worked and worked, pushing away those who discouraged her and pushing herself towards this goal: a friend. she hammered through the cement even though people pushed and laughed at her. when she got to the middle of the wall, the boy noticed the hammering and he quietly approached. at first, he was scared to speak to the girl and open up to her. at first, he couldn’t understand why she could possibly want to be his friend. but soon, he began to understand how much this girl cared about him. he opened up to her and she to him. before he knew it, as the little girl was working her way in, the little boy began hammering his way out, to her. they worked together to break the wall separating them. when the wall finally fell, the two stared at each other and finally saw what true friendship was. they smiled. and lived happily ever after. theend theend thend. ©jdnguyen.
