Not Time Yet

There are times Rapunzel watches from her tower, catches a glimpse of someone on the horizon, but realizes she's not ready for a prince to come for her. It is in these times that she resolves that she needs to keep on living her own life and discovering who she is before any kind of mysterious guy comes along to join in her adventure. She has to keep on dreaming, keep on working, keep on hoping, keep on smiling... then she'll know when it's time. Time for what? There's really no way of knowing. Perhaps she'll find the courage to leave the tower on her own. Perhaps she won't encounter anyone to join with on her quest for a while. Perhaps someone will come for her. But for now, it's back to living for today, not tomorrow.

"Oh c'mon, Pascal. It's not so bad in there."
