If there is anything that Disney cartoons have told me it is that Good always triumphs over Evil.
Jafar didn't win, Aladdin did. Sure Ursula was beautiful, but only for
a short while. In the end, Ariel got the man. The Wart didn't stay a
young boy helping around the castle... he pulled the Sword from the
Stone and became King. Snow White was beautiful and fair, and although
the (I think very pretty) evil queen almost won, in the end Snow White
prevailed.
Is it the same in real life?
Right now I'm watching my own sort of fairy tale with a beautiful young
maiden and an evil, jealous woman out to get the person that Disney
movies tell me will win. It sucks to watch in real life. A cartoon is
so much more colorful, it has catchy songs, there are cute animals with
personality that like to sit on your finger while you sing and whistle
with them. Real life is filled with hate, drama, backstabbing,
malicious plots, lies .... you name it, I see it. However real life is
also filled with loyalty, honesty, hard work, beauty, determination,
friendship.... you name it, I see it.
Seeing these two things clash in real life actually gives me a gut
ache. Not the dramatic "I fell on the floor laughing" - but you didn't
actually fall on the floor laughing - type of thing. I mean I truly
physically have a gut ache. It hurts. I want to vomit a little. I just
feel uneasy.
It has been a struggle going on for years. Ups and downs. A roller
coaster, if you will, but all the while it is the evil step-sister
trying to sabotage Cinderella. I guess in this story I would be the
Fairy Godmother. Overseeing everything, and working my magic to help
Cinderella. But this is a very powerful evil step-sister that is trying
to control any and everything. Hell she is trying to control Walt
Disney and is telling him that he is not actually the mastermind behind
Disney classic movies and parks. She is trying to convince him that it
was all her idea and that SHE is and always will be in charge.
Except she's not. We all know it. She won't accept it.
I just sit here antsy and waiting for that fairy tale ending where our
sweet heroine comes out on top. To give a frame of reference, the part
of the story we are currently in would be the big fight between
Malificent and Prince Eric. The darkest part of the movie with night,
fire, dragons, swords, etc. We've gone through the calm eye of the
hurricane and are now experiencing the worst effects of the storm.
Pretty soon the sun will come out.
The sun will come out ... tomorrow??? Oh I wish it would be as soon as tomorrow.
