I was in the middle of doing a mindless task and for one reason or another I decided to debate in my head why I didn't believe in fairy tales. I must be one heck of a debater because I changed my own mind on the matter.
I think the reason that fairy tales get a bad name is because people talk about and remember the good part of the story or "happily ever after". But as I got to thinking fairy tales, disregarding dragons, princesses, and knights in shining armor, are a lot like reality. They have broken families, death of loved ones, messy roommates, guys with more inner beauty than outer( and the inner is sometimes even lacking), people that make your life miserable, tricky situations, and big obstacles (though most of ours aren't fire breathing); just a lot of stuff that seems very normal.
To address "happily ever after", happiness is a choice. I really think that it's safe to assume that if there were problems in the kingdom before they got married, that there will be problems in the kingdom after they get married; they'll just face them together.
So if you were to ask me if I believed in fairy tales, I would explain it just as I have here and say "Yes, I do."
