- In the world of Cinderella's -

Fairytales are the magical stories when two people fall in love and live happily ever after. Usually the prince has mastered his way into the girls heart and been captured by her beauty. I have been thinking about fairytales alot lately, and do they really exist in today's world. The hopeless romantic within me believes with all my heart...that indeed fairytales are real and yes even still come true. - - In the world of Cinderella's there's always that moment where they fall magically in love with their prince. What is it about their prince that crept into their hearts and allowed them to fall? - - I always loved the story of Cinderella when I was little. She was naturally a beautiful girl and yet day in day out she dealt with the sufferings of her awful stepsisters. She had grace towards them that always seemed so genuine though they were so unkind to her. Nevertheless, Cinderella pressed on and continued her daily tasks, always hoping that someday she would meet her prince charming. The time came and she met him and all because the glass slipper was found and placed on her foot, she was the right princess. - - Only if in this life...if love were so simple...as to finding the right slipper to fit the foot of the right person. Seems cliche to say: but that's all it takes. The right slipper may not come for the prince or the princess that one expects. - - The slipper that you hold may indeed be pretty, and the person that is to wear that slipper to the ball, may not be an exact representation of what one expects. Just like Cinderella, she would have been the last chosen one to wear that slipper. However, her prince saw the beauty of her soul. And let's not forget that Cinderella had some magical help from the fairy god mother, when she showed up to wave her wand and make Cinderella the star of the fairytale. - - At the strike of the midnight clock that would all vanish, and every peice of her beauty would fade away...leaving behind the hope for her prince to find the girl of who the slipper would fit. - - The prince was captured by her initial beauty...and wanted to find his princess, and well we all know the ending that indeed he finds his princess and the glass slipper fits. - - The truth is fairytales look much different today: and often come with alot more complications than finding the princess to fit the right slipper. Perhaps though in the day to day tasks this Cinderella will find her prince--
