Fairytales

Happily ever after. Princesses get to live that way, so why shouldn't everyone else? I think the reason a lot of books have happy endings is because that's not the way things turn out in real life. Things are complicated and hard and there isn't always a light at the end of the tunnel. But, still, there is something that makes us keep going, right? It must be the dream - the hope of the fairytale ending. And I guess if God didn't show us bad times, we would never learn to appreciate the good things in our lives.
