Let's Go Back To Neverland

   Growing up being a complete lover of fairytale and magic, sometimes I wished I lived in that world forever, especially in Neverland. Peter Pan always excited me and I prayed that that would happen to me one day. The whole exciting world of Neverland, where you never grow up and you stay young forever, no worries, no responsibilities. The only work you had was to make your imagination soar.

"I always swear by Peter Pan & Neverland, but I keep thinking about the future constantly."

 

 

   That movie mesmerized me with mermaids, pirates, Indians, and fairies. But if I love that lifestyle so much, why do I keep thinking about my future plans so much. My mind was so set on never growing up and living in the moment forever. Not worrying about being forced to grow up and mature. SO how come recently, I've been getting excited by what's yet to come? I watch shows on weddings and ones about "moms-to-be" and I get excited for some weird reason.

 

   As I lay on my bed and type with my laptop sitting on my thighs, I look at my stomach and puff it out as if a life were living inside. And I smile... now I'm not stupid to get pregnant anytime soon, but the feeling of one day being a mom is what's truly exciting for me. I look at my baby brother, he calls me "Mom" sometimes. I wouldn't blame him, I practically was a second mom to him. But it just warms my heart hearing that word from a voice so small. I can obviously wait for a child of my own, but just talking about future plans with my boyfriend always puts a smile on my face.

 

    I watch wedding shows and bridal dress shopping shows and I oddly enough, get butterflies myself when I see the bride cry knowing that's the dress of her dreams. I'm head-over-heels in love with my boyfriend and it's so uplifting to know that he loves me enough to talk about our future together constantly. He wants to propose to me one year when we go to Florida for vacation. He wants to do it right in front of Cinderella's Castle.. I think that is the absolute cutest thing in the universe! he is the love of my life, I don't care if anyone thinks otherwise. I know what I feel in my heart and he knows what he feels in his and it's pure love.

 

   I used to wish I lived in Neverland and never had to grow up, but once I met my boyfriend I couldn't wait to talk about our future together and see what it has in store for us. Although you get physically older, it doesn't mean your heart has to get old too. Embrace your inner child and stay young and joyful forever. Don't be afraid for the future, because it is a beautiful mystery. Growing up can be a good thing, just don't forget to "Live everyday living in the moment", just like Talia Joy Castellano did. And don't grow up too fast, keep a young heart and spirit. It'll make life so much more fun ad enjoyable.
