Once Upon A Time

There was a sad and lonely little troll. He lived under a remote bridge in the land of Nod.

Everyone knew he was a troll, except for him. He thought he was a knight in shining armor. Other trolls would attempt to get to know him, but he would threaten them with his imaginary sword and yell at them "Be gone, unthightly Troll!"

Each day, one or two passers by would try to cross his bridge. He would lisp, "Fee Fi Fo Fum, who attempths to croth my bridge?? I will eat you alive, inthignificant human!"

Many of the would be bridge crossers would back away from the troll in fear. They didn't want to mess with him, even if all he could do was give them a good gumming.

One day a fiery witch came to the bridge. The troll stepped out menacingly, waving his invisible sword. "Be gone from my bridge, little witch! I will thtew you alive!"

The witch looked amused at the poor troll. She approached him gently and said, "Poor little troll, who has told you that you are a white knight? You are a sad and lonely little troll. But with the wave of my magic wand and with the help of my magic mirror, I will help you to see the truth."

She held up the mirror and waved her wand and for the first time, the troll saw himself as he really was. He dropped to his boney little knees and began to weep.

The witch patted him on the head and said, "it will be alright, little troll. All it will take is a few years of psychotherapy. Your bitterness will fade and as it does you will transform into the knight you wish you could be."

With that, the witch crossed the bridge,unimpeded, leaving the little troll to his breakthrough as she carried on to her fabulous costume ball.
