Girls, and boys, grow up with fairytales. We were filled with positive thoughts, dreams, and hopes.
And then reality hit us when we’re growing up. Things are never easy. Things are not beautiful. After tears and letdowns, sometimes there’s still no happy ending. After crying because the evil stepmom never allowed us to go to the party, there’s still no fairy godmother coming and helping to meet the prince. There’s never a perfect thing in the world.
But sometimes we hold so dear to the thoughts that there really is a perfect thing. Perfect relationship. Perfect friendship. Perfect life. Perfect luck.
When do hopes become false hopes? When do dreams become unrealistic dreams? When do you draw the line?
I guess no one knows the exact answer, but I believe that people should, at some point of time, stop for a while and look at the big picture.
Somehow, I think, part of growing up is really knowing that fairytales don’t exist. Knowing that hopes and dreams, no matter how beautiful, can be impossible sometimes. Preparing for the worst. Getting ready for the unimaginable.
I’m not saying that I’ve stopped dreaming though. I think what still keeps me going is my own dream of seeing better days.
But I’ve stopped believing in fairytales. I’ve stopped hoping that everything is going to be fine, everything is going to be more or less perfect.
Things don’t happen that way and I’m glad that I know it early.
And at the same time I’m also sad. Innocence has lost. Please welcome, the bitter and cold me.
Fairytales, go to hell.

Fairy tales are great for teaching kids about language and moral. You can’t just tell stuff from the newspaper to the kids rite? They won’t even understand a word.
awww…
‘Everything changes, but nothing is truly lost.’
In my opinion, fairy tales is to build self esteem of the kids and to let the kids to dream
I’m not saying to stop telling fairytales.. It teaches children about positive stuff and believe in themselves. I just think that at some time, people have to grow up and leave the fairytales behind..
life isn’t perfect, but it is beautiful all the same.
which bring me to another question
what is fairy tales then?
hypothetically… are these considered fairy tales?
> a man and woman who were deceived by a serpent and banished from paradise
> one family and tons of animals that survived big flood
> shy fugitive who brought disasters to the land of pharaoh and led a bunch of people out of age-old slavery
> wise boy who interpreted king’s dream even though the king himself forgot about the dream and in one occasion made friends with many lions
> a poor girl who went to a ballroom dance party with the help of a golden fish who can sing… FYI: she lived with her evil stepmother and bimbotic stepsister
> a girl from minority/exiled/colonized group of people who became princess and eventually averted the destruction of her people and afford them protection, wealth and peace for years to come
> a carpenter who turned water into wine, made the blind see, heal the sick, rise the dead and at least for one occasion walked on raging water… he was last seen ascended into clouds
