Only in cartoons and fairy tales and greeting cards do endings have glitter

Holly Goldberg Sloan
About This Quote

The idea that there are happy endings to all of our stories is a beautiful one. We can always hope for something better than the current state of our lives, but when we start thinking that everything will be okay in the end, that’s when we start to lose faith in ourselves. Here in life, the only time endings always have glitter attached to them is in greeting cards and in cartoons.
