In her dreams, Ann was a film star, a celebrity, famous.
In reality she was a wife, mother, sister, daughter.
She knew which she’d rather be.

That's lovely. I think we all know whether we'd prefer our reality or our dream version of life.
ah a Rorschach you've administered-

I think we do AJ ;)
Thanks Cloudia x
Nice to have our heads in the clouds sometimes, but it's not as rewarding as reality.
I think we all lead two lives, the one we have, and the one in our head!
Ah, so very true.
"She knew which she’d rather be."
BEAUTIFUL ending, m'dear!
*two thumbs up*
Thanks for sharing. Have a wonderful Monday!

So true Valerie :)
Yes I think you're right about that Shrinky :)
I think so Anthony
Thanks Ron, glad you enjoyed it. x
Ahhh...leaves the reader to wonder, doesn't it?
Great writing!
For me its those impossible dreams that allow me to blow off steam.
She does look pretty content with her actual roles. :)
that is so me!! and i am so glad i made the choices i did!!
That was the idea Trav ;)
Thanks Beach, and I know what you mean.
She certainly does silverthoughts2 :)
It's good that you're happy with your choices Melanie x
Oo! Oo! Oo! I love a good mystery! Who would Ann rather be???
You can decide SparkleFarkle :)
She's part way there. She's got the shades on.
Isn't that the truth--being wife, mother, sister, daughter is infinitely more satisfying than being famous. I'm assuming that's what Ann was thinking. Very sweet!
"She knew which she'd rather be"
I'm guessing that could vary from day to day.
I really enjoyed the story and the ending, which is open to interpretation. Lovely!
very nice!
smiles, bee
xoxoxooxox
I rather be the second. You can always be a star at home lol
Ah yes, the shades Cheshire Wife, can't be famous without them. LOL
I think that's what she was thinking Pat ;)
I did leave it open to interpretation Grandma, it's up to you. x
Thanks Bee x
That's true Lady's Life :)
Oh poor Ann .. she needs to wake up and realize she can be everything!
It is good to dream, I still do sometimes, you never get to old and grey to dream.
I do too!
I think she is, in her own mind /Daryl ;)
You're right BankerChick, it is good to dream. :)
Good for you Flowerpot x
LOL! I know which I'd rather be, too!
I would hate to be a famous film star. I would have liked to be a mother, though.
So it's true, everyone has their own dream.
I love that you didn't say which one.
Me too Nitebyrd
I feel blessed to be a mother Kay, never wanted to be a film star.
I leave it to my readers to decide SAW ;)
Good one!
Depends on the day as to which one I'd rather be. ;)
