I remember when I was young how I loved fairy tales. So much that I finished off all fairy tale books I could find in the school library. Fairy tales takes you to differents worlds. There was no problem picturing those worlds in front of me and believing that they could exist, somewhere far far away. That's possible because I haven't seen much of the world.
As an adult getting swept away by fairy tales is a bit harder since we know that scarecrows can't talk, people can't fly on their own and kissing frogs won't turn them into princes. We know this without any proof needed because of all the logics, rules and experiences we atain through all the years.
It's a pity because to be able to believe and dream is a fantastic feature and a very easy way to gain enery to move on.
Luckily I'm not the only one who think this way. That's why there's so many fairy tales for adults around us. Of course they can't contain fairies, unicorns, trolls or any characters we know that doesn't exists. Those are replaced by fanatasy characters who we try our best to hope and believe we might run into them around the corner. Like that perfect guy who have it all - looks, charm and wealth, who just happens to fall for you and you only. Although we know that he really doesn't exist we'll still get pulled into that amazing story believing that it could happen and let ourself swept away into that wonderful world.
"You're Beautiful" is one of those fairy tales - so realistic but still a fantasy.
