Every women who has ever seen this tale knows this moment in "Sleeping Beauty". Princess Aurora is daydreaming about her prince while dancing with her animal friends. But, Prince Philip hears her singing in the forest then seeing her dancing he takes the place of her daydream. Later we learn that not only is he a fabulous dancer, and is mighty enough to kill a dragon but he is also one heck of a kisser. Perhaps I have gone swing dancing to much and the spinning is making me delirious. This post has a purpose. We are never to old or to young to believe in "Happily Ever After". The plague of the single women is to stop believing in our Prince Philip's and think they are not real. We forget that we see prince charming's everyday. They may not ride on horses anymore or have dragons to slay. Instead, they stand by their aging princess while her arthritis causes her severe pain. Some can be found sitting at home with his princess during his lunch hour while she is nursing their new baby. One may be making his sick princess chicken noodle soup. Often they are simply asking how her day went. So, call me crazy or delusional but, I would rather spend my life believing in my "Happily Ever After" then settling for anything less. My prince will have a long list of flaws but so will I.
