So I'm not quite sure what is interesting to read and what's not, but I guess I titled this blogspot "From the Heart Moments" for a purpose. I think that purpose for me is to just get my thoughts down and hopefully someone might be able to relate to it or get something out of it!
Last night, I started thinking about Reality vs Fairytale after listening to a song by Billy Currington and thinking about my favorite movie from last year "Leap Year". I began wondering if the arts (movies, songs) have created this idea in our minds about life and love. I mean, I can say from a woman's perspective that I'm a sucker for songs like "Just the Way You Are" by Bruno Mars or movies like "PS I Love You". It makes me believe that there is a love story out there waiting for me!
I also love Disney movies. My favorite is "Sleeping Beauty" and I've almost collected all of the originals! I heard a rumor that after the release a couple of months ago of "Tangled" that Disney will no longer be making the fairytale movies because young girls now days don't believe in fairytales and boys only want to watch things like "Wall-E". This actually really troubled me. I guess where I grew up with an imagination that could even play with my mom's paint bottles, I just think that every child should be able to dream..to have a fairytale.
Is there a line between fairytales and reality?
I know that reality isn't what happens in the movies but I do know that I sure hope I get my fairytale some day :)
