Tales as Such as This

Cinderella
Snow White n e 7 Dwarfs
Sleeping Beauty
Shrek
Beauty and the Beast
Rapunzel
Thumbelina
Aladin
Swan Lake
Little Mermaid
etc etc.

All the above and so much more end with a Happily Ever After...

My all time favourite fairy tale has always been Beauty and the Beast. it's a little different from the rest because Belle did not fell in love with a prince. she was able to see goodness in the heart of a beast, and fell in love with that creature. well... the beast did eventually become a handsome prince. but o well... the point is, she loves him as who he is. =)

Then Shrek2 comes along. so... i have 2 favourites! heh. i watched it once in e cinema, twice on dvd... so far. =P For the benefit of those who have not watched Shrek, Shrek is an ogre. ogres are this supposedly green hideous monsters. Basically at the end of the story, Princess Fiona can choose to remain a pretty princess or an ugly ogress. she can choose to be with Shrek tHE MAn or Shrek the ogre... *guess her choice*

The world is so full of deceit. It tells me that appearances matter more than the heart. Money is better than kindness and love. Signifigance is more significant than humility. All these subtle lies.... pls help me to see right through them!!!!!!!!!!! Lord pls grant me wisdom, so i may choose to live each day, and each moment the way that is pleasing in Your eyes. remind me tt i am living in the world, but am not of the world!

i know that sometimes we have to be practical. and sometimes being practical seems to be the best way to decide something. but human understanding is so limited. God's ways are much higher than ours, and i know my God is more than just a practical God.

i make pple worry... especially my parents and my bro. to them, i seemed too driven by emotions and ideals... but Lord... oh i dont know. i am still learning... each day i am learning.

one day i want to love my Someone for who he is... not because of his looks nor money. though it wouldnt hurt to fall for someone who have a set of crooked teeth (esp if he has vampire teeth!!!) =P. but teeth fall out soon enough... when we get old... so it still doesnt matter. =) it oso wudnt hurt to to fall for someone's who's rich. so tt i can go shopping more often!! haha... seriously... i know that money is needed to buy a house, raise family, have kids... etc etc...
but i really hope that at the end, i can be like Princess Fiona, who can boldly choose to say that "i want to be with the... ogre, whom i fell in love with." =)

Hmm, I actually think God is practical (especially in the eternal sense, we're practical in the temporal), just that we don't see what he sees. Like, all of Jesus' parables don't make sense to the worldy man, but they sure did make sense to the apostles later on. Also, Jesus' passion was necessary, but no one could understand it then.

Indeed, human understanding is limited; Prov 1:7 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.

Last comment hehe: One of my favourite 'fairy' tales is actually the true story about the thief on the cross...Luke 23:45 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.
