I wish the world would quit telling us to wait, and hope, and pray, that one day Prince Charming will ride in on his white horse to rescue us. That our saviour will come, sweep us off our feet, and we'll live happily ever after. Stop preaching that we need liberating from our mundane, pitiful existence. That we are only complete in the arms of another. A sickening self-fulfilling prophecy of heroes and damsels. We don't need to be rescued. I will be my own damn hero. I'll save myself from this twisted narrative. And I'll love me better than anyone else ever could... Happily ever after.
Hey! My name, as you may have guessed above, is Lauren, and this is my little safe space to share any random ramblings about life, the universe and everything. If you've found this page, it's either because you're as weird as I am, and you're searching for someone else who finds the world a difficult place and is trying to make sense of it all... Or you're here because you know me and you're hoping to figure out just how weird I really am. Either way, welcome, and enjoy.
