The Cinderella Contract

The Cinderella Contract
Love is not being with someone who has the right ''qualifications''. Love is being with someone who is imperfect but you love them anyway.

Only once in your life

“Only once in your life, I truly believe, you


find someone who can completely turn your


world around. You tell them things that


you’ve never shared with another soul and


they absorb everything you say and actually


want to hear more. You share hopes for the


future, dreams that will never come true,


goals that were never achieved and the many


disappointments life has thrown at you.


When something wonderful happens, you can’t


wait to tell them about it, knowing they will share


in your excitement. They are not embarrassed to


cry with you when you are hurting or laugh with


you when you make a fool of yourself. Never do


they hurt your feelings or make you feel like you


are not good enough, but rather they build you up


and show you the things about yourself that make


you special and even beautiful. There is never any


pressure, jealousy or competition but only a quiet


calmness when they are around. You can be


yourself and not worry about what they will think


of you because they love you for who you are. The


things that seem insignificant to most people such


as a note, song or walk become invaluable


treasures kept safe in your heart to cherish forever.


Memories of your childhood come back and are


so clear and vivid it’s like being young again.


Colours seem brighter and more brilliant.


Laughter seems part of daily life where before it


was infrequent or didn’t exist at all. A phone call


or two during the day helps to get you through a


long day’s work and always brings a smile to your


face. In their presence, there’s no need for


continuous conversation, but you find you’re quite


content in just having them nearby. Things that


never interested you before become fascinating


because you know they are important to this


person who is so special to you. You think of this


person on every occasion and in everything you


do. Simple things bring them to mind like a pale


blue sky, gentle wind or even a storm cloud on the


horizon. You open your heart knowing that there’s


a chance it may be broken one day and in opening


your heart, you experience a love and joy that you


never dreamed possible. You find that being


vulnerable is the only way to allow your heart to


feel true pleasure that’s so real it scares you. You


find strength in knowing you have a true friend


and possibly a soul mate who will remain loyal to


the end. Life seems completely different, exciting


and worthwhile. Your only hope and security is in


knowing that they are a part of your life.”
