Faerie Tales

Dear,
Ever since I was little I have been obsessed with faerie tales. I had "Cinderella" memorised by the time I was 3 and was reading it to my new baby brother by as soon as he was born. Even now I have a book of traditional faerie tales that was my mothers when she was young, and also a complete collection of the Brothers Grimm faerie tales.

I guess it's because in faerie tales, anything can happen. Any wrong will be righted, every villan will be overcome. Farm boys become kings; princesses find true love. The poor, noble men become rich and powerful and the corrupt, powerful men get what'c coming to them. "Faerie Tale" is basically synonym for an idealistic world.

More later- I must fly.
