Think Lovely Thoughts


Once upon a time there was a Queen. She cast a glorious curse that gave her everything she wanted, or so she thought.  For the Queen despaired when she learned that revenge was not enough, she was lonely.  And, so the Queen searched the land for a little boy to be her prince.  She found him, and they lived happily, it was not ever after.  There was still an evil lurking out there. While the Queen knew she could vanquish any threat to the boy she also knew she couldn’t raise him without worry.  So the Queen procured an ancient potion of forgetting, don’t fret. For if the Queen drinks the potion she won't forget her child, she’ll only forget her worries, her troubles, her fears. And, with those gone the Queen and her prince can -finally indeed- live happily ever after.
