That one day

Long ago, sometime in the early 80's there was a girl who was around 11 years old who sat playing with her older sister. They were designing their jackets, sewing random things onto them to look cool. After all, cool was in. All the time they were talking about friends, people, music, and movies. The craze to them was affiliation with groups, it seemed like the place to be for some reason. To be part of. Anyways while the one girl sat there, she made up in her mind that one day she would make it into movies. She didn't know exactly what that entailed but the rush of it flowed through her body like water hitting you from a waterfall. Never ending, always flowing. It wasn't going to stop, and it never did stop. Only thing that happened, was life. Life of school, life of friends, boyfriends, marriage, children, homes, moving, packing, searching, jobs, traveling, money, death and addictions. Even through all that, the always flowing waterfall of her dream ran still. It ran in her veins, it ran in her subconscious and never cease to stop. So what she did, was a struggle at first, she got back into school to finish her highschool credits and she did. After a four year battle of procrastination, she finally completed with a great huge smile. Then she went to apply to college, where she was accepted after some mix up and near devasting refusal, she fought to get in and persisted. After a meeting with some important people, she was in! On the way home one day not too long after, she cried on the way home as she drove down the road. Soft tears fell in huge quantities as each one represented a joy of her happiness, she was finally there. At the door she had dreamed of for so long, as that little girl who said she wanted to make movies, she was at the very doorstep. Today, she is riding and sailing through college with great mentors who are in very best interest of her dreams. And even though it took some twenty five years to get where she is, it doesn't matter. All that matters is that she is there, and where she goes from there will be completely up to her. Her life is in her hands, and she wants to do wonderful things with that life.
