Dear journal,
It has been like a Disney world lately: a prince got married, then a bad guy died. I am now wondering whether I would be hearing news about sitings of one of the seven dwarfs any time soon; that would definitely be epic!
The Prince
I have seen enough movies and read enough books to know how princes have this enthralling appeal that, apparently no one, can seem to resist. It is even hilarious to think that Cinderella, Snow White, and Sleeping Beauty all fell for the same man: the prince. Come to think of it, who would not fall for someone who is handsome, rich, lives in a castle, and has a bejeweled crown on his head, right? And just the idea of being with the royal family is already exciting as it is.
In all the dreams that I dreamt, I don't know why being a prince has never been one of them. I have had dreams of being a superhero, a villain, and even an animal, but I haven't had any "royal" dream. One would probably say that it is a really great privilege to be born with blue blood running inside of you and be in the lineage of kings and queens. But if I were a prince, I would probably be like the little prince, a prince who has tons of questions and is in search of much wisdom.
The Bad Guy
I know that it's probably ill to celebrate the death of someone; but when a bad guy dies, we just can't help but feel good about it. Everyone has his nemesis.; Superman has Lex Luther, Batman has the Joker, while Tom has Jerry. Every time the bad guy fails and end up on the losing side, we rejoice, for we know that out of all the evil and negativity, the good reigns supreme no matter what the circumstance is.
We do have qualms about monsters, villains, and beasts. In the real world, the bad guys are the terrorists, war-freaks, and dognappers. The truth is that they breed fast these days, and they just multiple by more than four digits per day. It is alarming though that they are already hiding beneath masks that hide their true intentions. World leaders and faith workers are two of their common disguises nowadays. They talk about peace, but they work for war; they preach about piety, but what they practice is infidelity.
It is always a field day if people hear about a prince or a bad guy. They are not fictitious; they are real. So here is what we should think about:
Happily-ever-after is not just limited in fairy tales; it can happen to us, too. Maybe we have to lose a slipper first, or eat a poisoned apple. Whatever it is, everybody deserves a happy ending.
Remember, lightning could strike anytime...
