Sucker for a Story
Last night as I lost myself in the story of Flynn Rider and Rapunzel, while watching Disney's Tangled, I realized that I am a big sucker for love stories. I mean yeah sure they're cheesy and in real life things hardly ever work out so magically. In fact, based on my experience, things don't work out. I'm not sure if this has taken away from my enjoyment when watching "chick flicks" or if it has made them all the more magical. I tend to think that it makes them sparkle against the darkness of life. I believe the world should be a hopeful and optimistic place where good things happen to people. In my ideal world, people don't have to fear having their heart ripped out and crushed by the claws of lies and deceit. I am a romantic. I believe that chivalry should live on, and in no way am I trying to demean a woman when I open the door for her. There is a certain ideal that I was brought up with, and I can't/won't get rid of it. Sure, I live in a day long past, but what's so wrong with showing someone that you care? Is it not "manly" enough? Does it make me look "gay" to show that I'm not some robot that has no emotion? Well, I think not! I will go on living my fairy tale life, and maybe someday I will no longer have the heart of a coward. Maybe one day I will find my princess as Flynn Rider did. Everyone has a dream. Everyone deserves to find happiness. So, I guess all I really wanted to say was that I'm a coward, that likes to dream, and yes, I admit that I like a good love story.
