On a crisp, sunlit morning, two young girls, Jennifer and Jezze, set out on an adventure, each dreaming of marrying the prince and living in the grand castle atop the distant hill. With sack lunches tucked into their jackets, they ventured into the woods on the east side of town.

“Oh, Jennifer,” Jezze sighed, clasping her hands to her heart, “once I marry the handsome prince, I’ll have the most decadent dresses, the finest foods, and the shiniest jewels anyone has ever seen.”

Jennifer rolled her eyes. “Jezze, you only think of things to make yourself feel good. The Great Prince Himself said, ‘The poor you have with you always.’ But pretty dresses, fine jewels, and fancy parties are not easy to gain.”

As they delved deeper into the woods, they stumbled upon a clearing where two roads diverged. One path was straight and wide; the other, narrow, overgrown, and shadowed. Both were said to lead to one’s Heart’s Desire.

Jezze, enticed by ease, insisted on the broad road. Jennifer, sensing a deeper truth, was drawn to the challenging path.
