Once Upon A Time
Fairy tales often paint life as magical, where heroes triumph and dreams come true. But when these stories seep into our expectations, they can sometimes set us up for disappointment. Not every love story is everlasting, not every challenge leads to glory, and life rarely unfolds like the tales we grew up believing.
The idea of "happily ever after" can leave us ill-equipped for the messy realities—failed relationships, unfulfilled ambitions, or struggles that don’t resolve with a neat bow. These fairy tales gone wrong challenge us to reconcile the fantasy of perfection with the beauty of embracing life’s imperfections.
Yet, even in the wake of disappointment, we can carry the essence of magic with us. It’s in the unexpected kindness of strangers, the resilience we find in ourselves, and the moments of quiet joy that remind us life doesn’t need a castle or a prince to be extraordinary.
Holding onto a sense of wonder allows us to reframe the story, finding beauty in a reality that, while flawed, is uniquely ours. It’s not the story we expected, but it’s still one worth telling.
