The power within

Once upon a time, there was a small happy family of a father, a mother and a baby daughter. The father was a great king and the mother was his queen. They lived in their beautiful castle and they couldn't be happier.
 But unfortunately, like any other story must go.. The big bad witch came to their kingdom, but the good king didn’t invite her in. she was very angry with him, so she threatened him to ruin the little girl`s life, she said that on the girl`s 16 birthday, she would touch a spinning wheel, which would make her sleep for eternity.. nothing could save her but the prince`s kiss, and that was the little girl`s curse.

The parents were scared to death; they tried to protect their daughter and to stop her form touching the spinning wheel. But no matter how hard they tried, the day came and the girl turned 16, and the misleading ways lead her to the spinning wheel. But you know what happened next? The girl said “No, I won`t touch the cursed wheel. I won`t lie down waiting for some prince to kiss me, i won`t let that witch bitch manipulate me”

The princess had the courage to protect herself and the power to stand against the bad witch, no matter how strong was the witch. She didn’t need a prince to save her; she didn’t need her parents to protect. She alone had the power to control her life.

Every one of us is the princess. We live in this life full of bad people who try to use us “The witches”, whose powers and strength differ from one another. And full of temptations, that attract us to do stuff we might regret after, that`s the “spinning wheel”.

Our parents are always trying to protect us, even if they have to isolate us from the society. But it doesn’t matter, because we can never escape the witches and the spinning wheels that are surrounding us all the time. And there`s always a prince, he doesn’t have to be on a white horse wearing a costume. But he can be a dream. Any dream that our minds create, and thinking of it helps with our pains. Just like pain killers. They stop the pain but they don’t really cure the wounds.

And in the end, the only one who was capable to stop the bad witch was the princess, just like we have to. We are the ones who have to stand for ourselves, protect ourselves form bad people, and keep ourselves away from sins. We can`t depend on our parents forever, and we can’t rely on a dream. It`s the power within each of us that can help us through this life against any spell or curse.
