Snow white, was a cartoon I grew up with until I heard Sara Bareille's song
concerning Fairy Tales, on a mockery of how taking care of seven men would lead anyone to have an affair in this century when dishes are the novelty of the relationship.
So the prince lost its value, with personal experiences of how these stories truly differ from the struggles of any late teenager or early adult finding love. Suddenly the notion of reality dawned in, and all was strangely changing, or finding its root fears when it came to the actualities of dating.
When I first watched snow white, my recollections included, what an evil queen, snow white sings, the dwarfs are funny, and the prince is the ending. It's like the movie had its peak moments, with these particular characteristics. I mean a lot of old disney movies depended on the prince to have an ending. And I couldn't use this notion anymore, because Snow white just dealt with one evil queen, nowadays, in the modern world, we deal with lots of obstacles, whether its people, relationships, living, finance etc etc!!
So I preferred Sara Bareille's version by the time I was 20, thinking this is easier to phantom. At least it makes sense with my surroundings. Ah but life, and it's constant change, and our constant transformation with all that is. Suddenly the dwarves weren't ignored anymore, but accepted as part of my reality. After all, they weren't just anything, they were my thoughts, and that as a person, made them my own children. The same way Snow white, dedicated her time to guiding the way for these lil men, to clean up, brush up and tweak their ways, is the same way I over the past few months, have dedicated my time, into loving my thoughts, into so much love at times, that it feels like their lost in bliss. And that is where the difference begins, and the changes occur.
There could be so many interpretations on this, yet if the dwarves were looked at symbolically, they could be perceived as inner thoughts, maybe even personal weaknesses, or aspects of self. And the only way to truly let them rest in peace, is by setting them free with acceptance. Or the perhaps soppy repeated term of love.
I think, this is the true beginning, of self acceptance, and once that is achieved. Well the evil queen does die, because no longer does one fear change, or that part of the ego, RIP, because it settles for surrender, and embracing the ways the Universe works.
And then we all know how it ends... as fairy tale as it all sounds, disney is believable, once you have passed, the stage of being a child, and taking it as a bible. Once you have passed your resistance phase, of being a know it all, and taking it as bullshit, there comes this space, where you accept it.
Because believe it or not, it's not ''reality'' which makes things real, but a thought, which transforms into reality.
Enough of princes, after all, the princess is the one who creates him in the first place.
