there was once

there was once a young girl .. who would go up to the hill each morning . and on her way , she would pick up a bunch of daisies .. no one knew where she came from , but she was just there .... with wild hair ..and a strong feature , even the darkest night would bow down to her .


she'd go up to the hill and everyone would wonder , what could be on that hill and why does she spend so much time on the hill?. little did anyone knew , there up on the hill lay buried , her family .. her parents and a little baby ..


each time when she visits the grave site , she would kneel down and pray and tears would flow ... it was said that her family had died a long time ago but she spends every morning , visiting her family ... no one still knew where she came from ..


one day she met a bird and the little bird followed her along .. she was resting under a tree when the little bird told her that it was going to grant her three wishes . the little bird told her that she could wish for anything except that the wishes would not bring her family back ....

the young girl did not know what to wish for because she did not believe in wishes .. so the little bird instead , left her three huge pumpkins ,and flew away ... there was a lot of love in that your girl's heart . she decided to cut open the first pumpkin . and when she did she felt a whole lot of love seeped into her and she felt the love of her family all around her.




she decided to take the other tow pumpkins home ... her home was quite a simple home with not much but she loved her home. before going to bed , she prayed that she may receive the gift of courage .. she decided to cut the second pumpkin and lo and behold , she felt courage like she never felt before ... she knew that she must go on with life ...


the third pumpkin was just staring at her ... and she did not know what she felt in her heart but God knew .. she cut into the third pumpkin and there staring in front of her was a young prince .. he bowed to her and took her by the hand to his palace .. there , they lived happily ever after ....
