Farytales






The REAL ending to the fairytales we grew up on. Thanks Katie!



Walt Disney was a great man! He created the most epic fairytales of all time. Cinderella, Sleeping beauty, Snow White; just to name a few. I remember being a little girl and wanting to be The Little Mermaid. Yes, on occasion I would wrap my mother’s dresses over my tiny little legs and pretend I didn’t have legs to walk. I would sing the famous , ahhh ah ahhhh ah ahhhh ah ahhhhh ahh (keep singing ) ahhh ah ahhhh ah ahhhh ah ahhhhh ahh , until Ursula (my big brother), would get tired of the act and send a forceful pillow straight to my head and make me cry to my madre, pleading she’d do something about my brothers inadequate behavior. In all my life I thought love was going to be exactly how I saw it in these marvelous movies. After many failed relationships and now a good marriage, I realize that love is far from the tale. Love is wonderful, but it is not at all a fairytale. Love comes in many shapes and forms and sizes. Not one size fits all. Find out what love really is to you in a deeper sense and not this fluff that we get fed through the media of what love is “supposed to be” . You’ll find that you can be much happier when you don’t have a misconstruct view of what love really is. I am sure that our friend Walt had no intention to screw us up! And yes these movies depict a fraction of what love can be, but it should not define it.



What does love mean to you? Find out and be happy.
