world of darkness
they don't teach fairy tales to kids anymore, these days.
they were, at one time, taught to children to give them hope. to make them yearn for something better, and good, and ideal, and wonderful.
it was taught, to help children realize that it is good to dream, and that it is wise to have ambition.
that life can have a happy ending, no matter how impossible it may seem, if they do something to about it.
my parents used to read fairy tales to me. they even bought me a fairy tale encyclopedia.
i've lived my life yearning to have a fairy tale life and a happy ending. i know some people don't believe in fairy tales, but i do. i am aware that it is only an irony of the real world, but i never did mind.
i believe them because it is good to believe in something. specially because these things are worth believing in.
i will teach fairy tales to my descendants, in hopes of shedding some light in their life. in a world as dark as the one we live in, a little matchlight that fairy tales can create can certainly make a difference.
we need to realize that there is still some good left in this world.
